i thought we'd do that ride together Thursday. I;ll check your time out and try to do the same .... or if GW is on the 7 oclock ride Thursday i'll stay with him :smile:
@Brusgaard what time would you be happy me doing on SC10? Around 1 hour 15 to 17 seems reasonable based on the fact that i've been doing 3.3 watts/kg recently and the rider with that power has time of 1:07? Riders in the 1:15 region are pushing about 2.3 to 2.6 watts/kg. Should lose me the 10 minutes I gained Saturday.

Because then I'd have to work hard ... I was quite looking forward to an easy ride :tongue:

Edit : I wouldn't be able to warm up either so I wouldn't be at my full potential. We have to take these leagues seriously, don'cha know? :rofl:
It's called KARMA for all those serious bkool riders you have wronged.... :laugh:
 
Thanks Randy but weighing in at 95kg (209 lbs) is all the muscle I can carry at the moment :whistle: so no advice needed.:hungry:
I'm having to spend 3 weeks working in Chicago soon, so do you think that it might be easy to loose some weight over there? :wacko:
Piece of cake.

va-Froome could take some lessons from Ricardeno after taking a lazy 47 minutes to complete 40.2 km (not even over 52 kph average).

Ricardeno, is that Richardend in english?

That a begger of a course, I had a dry run at it today after doing CG1 and I was on over 58 minutes when I ditched with 6 km to go.
Must admit that I was watching the highlights from the Vuelta at the same time and I dawdled a bit for a lot of it but there are some real tough climbs in there with some short force flats just break your rythmn.

whorty I think if u done that stage again u would beat ur original time as u had just got back from holidays
I had a go last night but I only had an hour spare as tea was cooking. After an hour I was 43 seconds up on my original ghost with about 8 km to go. On original ride I faded badly towards the end so had I finished last night I'd have been a minute or so faster.

To be honest though, I've lost heart in the SC league now. I'll finish the rides but not going to try too hard. It's supposed to be fun but the hate the last few days have knocked the fun out of it. We've always competed on the CG leagues and it's nice to do well but I've been just as happy coming last but none of use really take it seriously. SC is clearly taken far too seriously for my liking.
