Went to Ault Park today to do a 15×1 minute efforts. I sued the crit course going in the opposite direction of the actual event and started each effort at the bottom of the course. One minute took me well behind the pavilion, actually about 2/3 of the way across that stretch of road and

WInter came back with some snow yesterday and highs in the 30’s so it was another indoor session. Did five 2/2/1 efforts at tempo/steady state/tt pace. Held 280+, 330+ and 360+ on all. Had to replace he hub batteries on the Indoor 400. That wasn’t as much an issue as having to pair and activate

First Blue Streak Time Trial

A little too cool (upper 50’s) and breezy from the wrong direction (south west) for great times but still rode a solid 22:07 or 27.13 mph on the course. Checked last years April event and I rode the exact same time. Used the Stages but for some reason couldn’t get the power meter to pair

Stages and New Joule

Finally mounted the new Joule and paired it to the Stages crank arm. No problems there at all. Still not satisfied with the mounting of the joule. As shown between the bars its easy to see in the aero position but its not convenient to activate the buttons on the right side of the unit.
