I'm busy at 1730 so if anyone wants to ride 1630 start I will join. Otherwise I'll just do a rebounder workout.

I'm flexible, so this would be 11 am for me. Any others joining? Perhaps the internet won't go up in flames for me this time.

If it doesn't suit others and the normal time is prefered it's not an issue for me.

I put a time in earlier and am no competition. You fast guys are all very evenly matched and have a chance of catching the Scottish tornado.

 

[Duckman]

Ok, so where we at here? 15 mins from now or an hour and 15?

Stick to the original. I'll do my own thing!

 

[Duckman]

1h15min till warmup start.

Tough competition there @Duckman

 

[Duckman]

Tried to catch you at the end, but given avg heart rate 167 figured I better respect your speed. You really crushed your Thurday time.

Man those folks are fast at the front. Have to keep doing my base riding to improve endurance in the middle bits.

Well, it was just a matter of me and Papa staying on the wheel of Winni with his more or less constant 4wkg. Eventually he dropped us, and as expected I was dropped on the climb by Papa. But yes, a nice improvement over Thursday and sub 30 minutes as expected in the "race preview".

@Brusgaard hope Wini is not one of Shim's friend newbie riders, if so I will be picking up the Rouge once Randy is back on form.

Not likely. Your avg. power is better than mine - you just need stay in the draft! No offence @Randyberlin, but even with you on form, you still would be no match for @Duckman. Maybe in the days when we used the BKOOL Pro trainer (like Winni today) with its random boosts of power in some rides.

I think my limiting factor might be that I'm out of great Scotch, so reward drink is not as enticing. Taking recommendations for tasty ones to try.
