Did 2hr Z2 workout, it was could be a little bit easier what it was. Nightshift and couple harder rides was a burden, which I'm not well enough recover yet. My Z2 workout was probably little bit too close of Z3 zone, especially heart rate near the finish raise up too close to Z3. Better be more careful next time.

@13 rider @steverob - I'm signed up tonight in same pen as you guys. My companion app plays up in races at the moment so I can't message. I can read messages sent to me. I'm hoping as it's a flat ish course I can hang on for at least the first half of the race - I may go rogue to chase a break if someone goes off the front as a kamikaze effort I don't expect to be there at the end of the race but if I am, I'll see what my sprint is like these days.

Catch you on the start line.

Our race this morning in the 550-650 pen was a fairly snappy start. A few attacks on the first 2 laps and then i think everyone realised it was unsustainable and we had two recovery laps before the final lap. Everyone (9 of us) finished within a few seconds of each other. We almost dropped the big sprinter at one point, but he got back on and won.

You had your work cut out there Alex to drop a guy with that amount of extra flat power. Great result for you 👍

Yeah I was happy with that. Hard race. I was at 1.0 IF.
Looking forward to Queen's Highway next week, but the rest have still got to race this week, so let's not get too far ahead.

We also have a time-based GC now too, which spans BOTH time zones.

Field doesn't look super strong ,if your there at the end I'm happy to lead you out as my short stint isn't up to much as will be going for 500mts ish. Again a big Fondre entry but they don't seem to work as a team but worth keeping an eye on

I've not been at the front of a race or finishing with others for a few months now so no idea if I still have a sprint I'll wheel suck as long as I can and if I am still there at the end I'll have a go. Like you I may need to go early and see if I can hang on as I'm pretty sure I haven't got a 10 w/kg sprint at the moment.
There are a couple of riders who would be top 'C' in old language so they may push the pace, but hopefully enough of a pack that they will get chased down.
Nice turnout though so could be a bit of fun.

I had a nose at your vid earlier, you're very brave filming yourself riding! I'd be all sweaty, sweary, asthmatic haha - I also ride without a top as I get too hot so my vid may have to go on to Onlyfans instead

I only have three fans

I do swear sometimes though - I think it's part of the game. My content is marked "not for kids" and I'm careful not to get my tackle out
