DIPSLICK Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 Yesterday the temp did not go above 0 C, did not even pluck up the courage to go run outside never mind cycle so what else can I do but some secret training.... THE ONLY ONE AGAIN ...the only one what?WHO DOESNT DO TEST RUNS FIRST
SwissVan Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 WHO DOESNT DO TEST RUNS FIRST Don't normally do that but was bored and I don't trust that Jaco oke so thought I would just check its not to hard. Got lots of downhill so it suits me just fine
DIPSLICK Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 im a dikgat normally i prefer the downhills but to be 100% honest on the virtual races i find i die trying to get speed and i dont recover, on the downhills i do better on the climbs getting myself into a rhythm and just pumping it out at my own pace UNLESS SOME BOX IS 50M in front of me
SwissVan Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 Entries looking healthy, possibly some overseas participants other than moi

I don't really like them tho as I find it difficult to keep the power up without making to much noise, for some reason the powerbeam (mine anyway) makes a hoersa racket going downhill at speed.... I'm waiting for the people below me to come and complain....

Jaco-fiets Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 I agree on the downhill comments. Everything takes efforts which is probably good. I am an ok climber but really struggle to keep a rhythm on these online route climbs. Constantly feel like my back wheel is slipping and as soon as the cadence drops the watts are nowhere
Jorrie Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 I agree on the downhill comments. Everything takes efforts which is probably good.

Constantly feel like my back wheel is slipping and as soon as the cadence drops the watts are nowhereThats the one place where the speed to power trainers got a bit of an adv. I think. When the incline gets to 9 and up its not that easy to keep the revs and watts up!
