NotSoBigBen Posted July 15, 2016 Share Tony Megawatts Martin I'm always impressed by just how still his upper body is when he rides, it would appear all effort is just to pedaling .... nothing wasted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Dale Posted July 15, 2016 Share Back down the course and Dumoulin has gone fastest by ten seconds at the first time check. Normality restored somewhat but the Dutch rider still has a long way to go. Martin just couldn't get over the climb fast enough and the descent didn't give him enough of a chance to claw back the difference. Still, he'll be disappointed with that result.

NotSoBigBen Posted July 15, 2016 Share Just wondering is there a certain speed below which 'aero' is less important than power in the legs i.e. you might as well sit up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bateleur1 Posted July 15, 2016 Share If the wind is still a problem I think NQ will have a tough time with that small body tackling the wind. What do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vetplant Posted July 15, 2016 Share If the wind is still a problem I think NQ will have a tough time with that small body tackling the wind. What do you guys think?I would tend to agree. Power to weight helps you in the mountains, but brute Power prevails in the TT's and in the winds, of which we have both today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
