aha.. so i took the plunge and now i think im ready to experience the pain by playing sweeper for the backmarkers ... lookout for the 95 kg whale at the back . 

That 333 ave power is very intimidating hey (hands over eyes, partial tears)

What did you purchase?

What did you purchase?

i got the Power Pro .. thanks to a hubber down the road with cadence and heartstrap and a joule gps unit .. all setup , seems to be working, will be sure to download routes in time.I will play around later again and tomorrow. wattage is close to my crank meter so calibration must be right-ish ... but even just stuffing around i pulled a muscle (lol), thats my excuse in advance  :whistling:

Nice buy! Good machine!

 

There's no easy riding on this unit! Pedal hard up and pedal hard down...

Did an hour Free Ride last night at FTP or just under. Sweated a bucket!

 

The thing just makes you work hard!

Did the sufferfest revolver last night. 16 x 1 min intervals @ 130% of ftp. The last few are survival.

I'm clearly not working hard enough...no wonder I'm at the bottom of the finishing list.

Don't worry, we can take turns in sharing the glory of finishing last.

 

So remember when you beat me on Tuesday....I lost on purpose (and I'm sticking to that story) :ph34r:  :ph34r:  :ph34r:  :whistling:

I can't even win against Hellkom! Still limping with an on and off line with ADSL...looking at LTE on Monday. No more grasshopper crap!

 

Will have to ride hard at SBR tomorrow, weather permitting...

Afternoon guys... I know this probably isn't the right place to post this but I thought since it deals with the Cycleops trainers.. If there's anyone selling a power beam or power sync. Please let me know. Thank you . Apologies for it not being in the correct forum

I'll look for a route that does not fluctuate so much in gradient so you can get a nice high watt rhythm going (Swissvan)

 

Will post it by sunday evening
