In other news;
I have a date for surgery! 23rd October. Surgery lite for me though. I am not bothering with ACL reconstruction and 6 months off the bike. I would go mad. Or madder.

Bonked badly. Only had an almond croissant to eat all day. First climb ok, just under 24 min descended and started 2nd climb and that was it -light headed and no power. Quick gel and bidon of water and slowly rode back up. It took a long time but I had to finish. Going to lie down ​

Yeah, It is a bit of a reminder that we are fragile in so many ways, even those that appear superhuman ... but then you look at Alex Zanardi and Billy monger ... insipring

I started the 100km Audax B today 2.5-3w. Was it heck! 5w out the paddock and 3.5-4 for first 15km. Fast enough that my tired little legs couldn’t take it so I bailed. 100km irl ride tomorrow and need to have something in the tank.

Bob, WBR see to have a good endurance ride group and most stick to the W/Kg

I will look that up. I have a 100km Surrey ride planned tomorrow where the pace will be quite sedate. Until we hit Box

Desperately trying to allow myself a rest day today. I thought I was going to be out all day which would have made it easy - but got back early and trying not to go jump on the turbo.

May do a really short race tomorrow and try and recreate my best 20 min power on Zwift.

OK ... So I've finally done it I have joined the Zwift Splitters (also Known As Cyclechat ) ... at least for a trial period of 7 days.

Was looking for a nice flattish ride of around 50Km but have no idea how to find such a thing ... I also have the Zwift Preferences App installed as well if I need that to ride any particular course that I don't have with my free trial.

Also set up ZwiftPower as well ... Don't want to jump on a race as don't want to be accused of sandbagging was looking for something around 1.5 to 2W/Kg ... might do 100Km social ride tomorrow as well
