How the Fondo go Mira? I was going to do it but had to go to the inlaws. It’s a shame they only do it one day on the weekend

Haven't done a long ride for a while and I didn't have much snack with me so I was totally destroyed near the end. Then I remembered that I have a box of gel in the pantry lol. It was pretty good overall, I got to ride with people for the majority of the ride. Gonna have to get my endurance back.
That’s a lot of time on a trainer
got my new seat (Thanks Matt and Earl), so will see if that helps with some of the 'pressure' issues on the bike.
Guess i need non-alcoholic beer in my house... or just stick with the alcoholic version

So that's why I'm not an Olympian. Well there are drinking games, I'm not winning those neither. I'll just drink my sorrow away then.
What you guys do for maintenance with all this riding? I don’t really change gears much as I spend most of my time in erg mode. Apparently done between 660 km (garmin speedometer) and 1000 km (zwift). Shouldn’t really be getting any grit but still curious
I check my tire pressure (both front and rear), that's about it. Chain doesn't sound dry, so should still be good to go.
I managed to wear the chain out last winter. I did put on a lot of mileage doing the 12wk program though.
Anyone doing the championship on Sunday?
Canada is 9:30 am MST Feb. 24 Saturday... 3 times up volcano mountain...This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I wish I'm capable of racing that. Even once, might already be too much for me.
Right it's Saturday lol. Volcano is not too bad. The total distance is 68k. I'm guess that it will last just under 2hrs, long enough that you have to watch your pace. No too many people have signed up, we'll see.
Got dropped by the lead group right away. Stayed in the second group for a bit before it split into two. Stayed in the third group until the end of the last climb where four of us got dropped. Managed to hold them back to finished 51st, 11:27 behind the winner. Legs are toast and I'm happy.
Good stuff... saw you holding 220+ watts... gave me cramps just looking at your numbers.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
L. Sanders (apparently he's a second place finisher of Kona) on his first climb up in the Canadian group, he kept around 3.5-4 watts/kg @ 140 bpm
Suffered through this 1000m yesterday.. https://www.strava.com/activities/1424334815
Finally got fed up and returned the Flow after it refusing to calibrate.. twice too many times...
Got a Bushido, on sale for $699 down from $999... if it blows up, hopefully at least it does it by April and I’m back outside
A bit more expensive, but direct drive... 749 USD (shipping 85 USD for my address) for a new 2014 kickr https://www.wahoofitness.com/devices...r-powertrainerThis quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Still too much coin for me, especially being it that its now MarchThis quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Apparently it's my bike and the Tacx that doesnt get along. Could not get the bushido to fit right... got the Elite intera..should have got this one initially as it's waay easier to setup.. plus no calibration to piss me off. Will be re-running a FTP test tonight to see if it ups or downs it.
Good luck on the FTP test... i really dread doing it.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I do the Step test, which is slightly less hell, as i dont have to worry about holding 250 for 20 minutes..i just gotta get through to 300-325 watts
You've probably received the email from 4iiii already, but the drive side upgrade to podiiiium (599 USD) seems to be quite a bit more expensive than first reported by dcrainmaker (349 USD for existing single sided precision owners). At this price, I might just take a pass on it.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Yeah I got the email too. Bit more money than I thought for sure. Probably still going to get it.
