I'm hoping for a close race giving us lots of great mammaries.

A bit better than 2 weeks ago thanks Randy. I did a 25:47 and came in the top half. Still a long way to go I feel

Im not too sure how you like your titties but I’m told we will be shooting off at intervals rather than all together@IrishAl
Just wondering how the TT will work on Monday? We just on titty bikes and doing the usual mass start? Then it's just first over the line? Or do you not know?
Richie that organises it said something about a new event having to be created by Zwift so hold off on signing up until closer to the day
You mean Monday? I only see Tick Tock on ZP .... where do you see it's NY now? Of all the courses, NY on the sky roads is probably the worst by far! Really hate those sky roads - only ride them when forced to in a race!New York sky roads circuit plus mass category start =
I had signed up for the old event earlier, hence me asking, but that event has gone and a new ITT event has been created. I haven't signed up yet as I would hate to be first off

You can sign up. I think the earlier you sign up the sooner your start time

Took a ride up the Alpe today to set a time and FTP on the new PM.
My previous PB was 45:21 in a race situation where I had a good group and paced it well. Was on a good day and felt strong the whole way.
Today I got 51:11 and backed off for one turn thinking I was cooked, but came back. 2nd fastest of 15 efforts so not a disaster or a shock really. I’m confident I’d go sub 50mins in a race.
FTP came out as 252W so will see what happens to that. I think it might increase in an IRL race.
One thing I’ve noticed about the power reading from the PM compared to trainer is the immediacy. I’ve always had Zwift set to instant power reading rather than 3sec avg but it looks like my trainer was doing some smoothing anyway.
That power chart would have been smoother previously, I can even see where I back off the power for a split second to change gear!

That’s the event now fixed.

once you sign up you’re given your start time. I was 4th to sign up for B and I’m off at 1900h. My experience on these iTTs is that they fire riders off in 10 second waves So it Would take a lot of sign ups to Significantly delay your start.
oddly Zwift told Richie that only Bologna or Tick Tock can be used for iTT events, but Del and maybe others were saying how other events have been run on other courses.
How does that impact on your wkg / race category? Upper cat B or clenching onto Cat A perhaps?

What was your previous ftp nick? Like you I’m a bit dubious about zwift ftp’s. I think the best test will be when your really motivated in a race.
