DIPSLICK Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 Yip! I find I have to work downhill as well. Don't care much since it is a great workout. I find when I do 2 or 3 sessions a week on the trainer I am relatively stuff on the wknds. How much truth is in the theory that 45min on a trainer = 1.5h on the road (or something like that)?HONESTLY my run on saturday was after a loop with IRON i tried to do that race/loop, i got 25km and i was broken ,,,,to me its much harder on the trainer as you dont get to recover, thats my opinion, also maybe im just pushing harder(MORE STALKERS)
DIPSLICK Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 OK SO NO EXCUSES THESE WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED DATA/LOST/RAN OUTPOWER FAILURE........RUN ON GENERATOR JUST IN CASE IF YOU STOP OR DNF,,,,,,SIMPLE YOU BLEW
LOOK695 Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 Yea the thing with downhills are you will need a motor to drive your freewheel to go quicker. All IDT's just increase your speed for the same watts, which is another way around the problem. I dont know so much about 45min = 1.5h, but it is indeed tougher...tougher in the sense that there is no respite.Sounds like you guys don't ride hard enough on the road

rouxtjie Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 Sounds like you guys don't ride hard enough on the roadWe suck wheel...what can I say
DIPSLICK Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 Sounds like you guys don't ride hard enough on the roadhey hey i done 65 on the road on saturday THEN I JUMPED ON THE TRAINER AAAAAND I COMMUTE AT NIGHT 35KM :devil:
LOOK695 Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 We suck wheel...what can I sayI ride on my own most of the time, so wheel sucking is a privilege. Your virtual racing sounds like fun though.

rouxtjie Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 I ride on my own most of the time, so wheel sucking is a privilege. Your virtual racing sounds like fun though.it is...and to be honest with you, that is all it needs to be....I mean we all need to train in the week and with kiddos, work, swambos its hard to fit a ride in, especially in the winter with limited sun. So sitting on a spinning machine for an hour feels like 10...this just makes it enjoyable and fun.

It is good to have fun and to enjoy life and it is not always easy to find the time to put in a proper ride. Anyway, I am out of here for a REAL ride, suffering on the hills, freewheeling downhill, dodging glass, lekker tempo riding on the flats and fighting the wind
slowashell Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 Just arrived in Durban and set the unit up. No excuses for tomorrow night. I will finish, but I will most probably finish last (been stalking certain profiles). I will pick up all your gel sachets, banana peels, etc. One of us has to protect the environment.

SwissVan Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 Interesting topic chaps Are u allowed to race with TT bars and deep sections?Are these things clever enough to credit you with the benifets compared to friends riding normal bars and wheels?
