Did two races this morning. In the Southwest Ohio Time Trial Championship I rode our usual Tuesday course, held 357 watts, and too first place. About an hour later I went back out to ride the less than four mile prologue tt of an omnium. Held 367 for 8-9 minutes. Unsure of how I did

Looks like I rode around 23:00 holding low 340’s on the power. We had to use an about and back course instead of the loop we usually use due to security concerns on the base. Also had lots of wind, some helpful, some not. For the second night of tt efforts, rode well.

Interesting ride. Averaged 349 watts, about 9 higher than last week but with the cool air (60’s) and wind (15-25 mph), my time was a minute slower than last week. I didn’t go out hard and really didn’t go at this one with much determination knowing I have the Blue Streak tomorrow and a few

have on the schedule to ride eCleves on Tuesday, Blue Streak on Wednesday, the Southwest Ohio Senior Tt on Saturday followed by the Omnium prologue (at Cleves again) and then the Findlay Flyer TT in Gilboa, OH on Sunday afternoon. Should be doable with some rest between.

I wont give specific names of the athletes I work with here in the blog but just over the weekend one of my clients took two top 20 placings at Collegiate nationals in the road race and time trial. He trained hard all winter and it paid off big this past weekend.

Started at Point Pleasant, OH on Saturday morning and rode into Ripley, across the first bridge into the outskirts of Maysville, into Maysville and then a little further south on Route 10, back into Maysville and across the Simon Kenton Bridge into Aberdeen, OH. From there we took 763 to 125, west to Russelville and

I used the crib course again on the tt bike. Held 351 for 15:35, 23 mph which given the hill on that course isn’t bad. Feeling much better on the tt bike when it comes to getting the desired power. TT effort starts at the higher peak (a few peaks in) to the left and

I rode the tt bike on these and averaged 516, 500, 507, 501, 471, 491, 501, 492, 499, 478 and 490, or 495 avg. Felt good about these especially in the tt position. Used the uphill section of the Ault Park crib course going clockwise.

22:35, 27.35 mph give or take. Actually, looking back over now 19 years of data, that would be one of my faster first nights out on the course. Power was only so-so. I’m adjusting to a more aero position. I do think that 340 watts and that speed is pretty low on the power end.
