    "Winter" - Cruzbike Virtual Time Trial Challenge

    Here are the results of week #6 of the Winter Cruzbike TT Challenge. 2 new riders: Hardy & Barry - Welcome. 4 new Personal Bests by Larry, Rob, Josh & Jason (Jason by 57 seconds - Hmmm - if he does that next week, someone will have to through a sandbag on him to slow him down! :eek::eek::eek:)...

    Zwift - Cruzbike Activities (races and group rides)

    Great effort Jason! So one question I have is how could the guy in front of you only ride at 3.2w/Kg and still be ahead of you when you were putting out 3.7w/Kg (for 2 hrs!) - Does that mean he was sucking someones wheel a lot more? Also good see the file upload is working again!

    "Winter" - Cruzbike Virtual Time Trial Challenge

    Great news! Jason join last week, and Hardy and Barry rode their first TT this week. That means we are up to 12 people in our challenge here in week #6. So everyone on the list. Don't forget submit your ride to me today 0- or go and ride if you haven't yet. Everyone else "not on the list" - join...

    Zwift - Cruzbike Activities (races and group rides)

    This is Eastern Time Zone. I rode with a group like this on Monday - and it seemed quite easy to stay with them. It was such a huge blob - it just seemed like you got sucked along at 25mph!

    Road bike vs. recumbent comparison

    I am not sure how old most commenting about their performance on this thread are, but I am thinking most if not all (except Jason) are at least over 50, and maybe most closer to or over 60) I suspect that age is at least one of the reasons that Jason possibly has different results than the rest...

    Didn't have to think too long about that one, did you? :p

    Zwift - Cruzbike Activities (races and group rides)

    If anyone wants to join me, I will be riding in the "3R 160 Steady Ride [~3.0w/kg avg]" I have a house showing at 9am, so the only way to get a good Century in, is to start at 2:45am. It should be a sub-4. Right now there are 75 people signed up for it, and I am 1 of only 2 in the 60+ age...

    Road bike vs. recumbent comparison

    If you have not done this yet Jason, try comparing some average power reading between the Neo and your Garmin. i.e. ride whatever in Zwift, but something you can get a good average power reading from Neo. (meaning don't pair you pedals to Zwift for this test) Then on your Garmin capture you...

    Test riding a true racing recumbent

    Yes, I am a mid-sole believe now. Increased my power by at least 20%. No - not really - but it does feel better on my foot, and I never get hot-foot now. I think there are some other advantages as well - but time limits my ability to put them down right now.

    Yes, it is has been "very cold" in the NC mountains this winter! :rolleyes:

    Zwift - Cruzbike Activities (races and group rides)

    Just playing with you! - Great to be part of the "group" - even though I was "last" - boohoo :( - but at least I was still on the "first page" - Was riding with a 10 degree seat today, so that might be holding me back a little. I'll have to get it back to 20 degrees for next time and see if that...

    Zwift - Cruzbike Activities (races and group rides)

    Haha! Seemed like a "race" to me - at least at the beginning when I got dropped - then it was just a solo TT effort- :D I would say if you can still talk while riding at the end of 40km TT, then you probably aren't riding hard enough. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Zwift - Cruzbike Activities (races and group rides)

    I had fun - I see how weak I am now! :( It was hurting there at the beginning for me too. The B group I was in (with Alex) rode at 4+ w/KG for the first 3 miles and I just could not hang on. Alex did - Kudos to you Alex!!! Then I was with a group of 2 or 3 for a little while, but mostly rode...

    "Winter" - Cruzbike Virtual Time Trial Challenge

    Hardy - technically you can choose "any" route as long as you ride it each time. I was trying to limit it to the "same" Zwift segment so it was easier for me to check and tabulate, but since there were so many "variations" of 2 laps around volcano flat, that proved to be problematic. If everyone...
