Weekend rides

Hectic weekend playing with my powertap and starting into build phase.

Saturday did the Lamborn triangle, with goal of averaging 200W. Managed, starting well with 235W to first Ridgeway point, 215W at Wantage then finally 209W at end.

Found keeping the watts up when going fast on level, downhill is bit tricky and something I will need to learn. Frustratingly found that when Powertop fills up it does not wrap round like the HAC so data from end of ride was lost. Still proved benefit of the Powertap as day was very windy and so speed at 27km Avs not good, but sure if did same Power on a calm day would get close to 32km PB.

Sunday went on club run, taking it easier as 147W average showed.

Monday is a rest day, Tuesday plan to compare Powertap and Lifecycle to see how they match up.
