Welcome Jeffrey - You will kick *** on Zwift with your Silvio. Since aero doesn't matter you will be in a more upright and comfortable position for watching the race with the added benefit that you have a more open hip angle and can produce more power (I could always produce more power on my...

no kidding - you missed your chance - no turn around and go back!

Too late for that! And so much for recovery week! Spent 90 minutes shoveling yesterday, and another 90 minutes today after already doing a 90 minute ride early this morning! Argh. Wonder what TSS I earned for shoveling up a 15% grade for 90 minutes! Good thing tomorrow only calls for 30 minutes...

Welcome - welcome - welcome to the tribe Alex. Wow - what a wreck - what a recovery - what a story. Can't wait to see pics of you on your Vendetta! Keep getting better Alex! :D:D:D:D:D:D

Well, today I was to do "nothing" as part of my recovery. Hard to do nothing since we are snowed in under 8" of snow (I know Ratz - 8" is nothing of you - but with driveways and roads at 15-20% grade - we are not going anywhere probably at least until Tuesday. Plus high of 20 F and low of 5 F...

You need to come prepared either way. In 2015, it was about 30 degrees and it was horrible! I rode the 24-hour and the cold just wiped me out at night In 2016 it was about 50 I think at the start - so much better. I'm sure hoping for that or warmer this year!

The problem is that your HR is fickle. Just being excited (i.e. being in a race situation) can make it go up as much as 20 bpm or more. But this is not really a true showing of it working harder really. For instance: I can sit and pedal at 180watts on my KICKR and my pulse can be 125 just laying...

You can probably do it with Golden Cheta - Ratz is your man however!

Hardy, Sadly as Ratz has eluded to, it is super early in the season and Kevin, Jim, Maria & I are on supposed to be on a gentle ramp for RAAM which ends in the middle of June. This means we will be no where close to our best fitness level for Sebring. That doesn't mean I won't "give it my all"...

Riders in the non-drafting 24-hour event are not even supposed to have people "drafting" behind them as this actually gives them an aero boost. But like Jason said, he will be pacing for the 24 hour event, which will be much slower than the "A" group speed in the Century and/or 12-hour.

Scolded by Ratz for building extra TSS and going "into the red" last week, I have "seen the light". He reminded me that RAAM is my "A" race for the year and Sebring is not! I was ramping quick be in tip-top shape for Sebring but at the expense of our RAAM training ramp. Anyway - I have turned it...

Here is a link to Amanda's latest ride day 233 and going strong: https://www.strava.com/activities/819326632 She looks like she starts in the dark at about 5:30am and ends about 6:30pm with about 60-90 minutes of down-time for eating and breaks. There are always other riders with her as well...

Cool David - So where are the pics and the data for this hour TT - love to see them! :) And yes, probably be a few Schlitter bikes at Sebring - but my guess is that number will start going down after we run the the Vendetta in the wind tunnel! :) . btw - how long are you going to be in the US -...

OK - Lucia - another "little" fun job for you - we need a Cruzbike Emoticon! - Maybe a whole group of them... :)

I think it must have been all the "drag" created by having to ride with those "party hats". IMHO - if they can spend the time and energy to create a "big wheel" bike and "party hats" for everyone, they could add a Cruzbike. .. One cool thing maybe to get them to do quickly would be to add a...

That's us: "The Wild" tribe of Cruzbikers ... We'll descend on Sebring like a flock of .... like a flock of .... like a flock of .... ??? (obviously need some help here - I think I need some of that rehydration mix right now - everything is gettttting a little fuzzy!)...

I'm just old and the only ones I know are: :) :( and ;)

Thanks - I had already contacted him Jesse a couple months ago asking him what he was going to do. I was trying to talk him into riding the 12 but he was pretty set on the Century. I initially had hopes of getting a solid 6 or more fast bent riders that could challenge a 300 mile 12-hour mark...

Took yesterday (Jan 1) off - well off the bike at least - spent a good part of the day hauling all my biking stuff back to the garage and then when Gayle came home we took down all the Christmas decorations. (= many trips up and down the stairs hauling boxes) - I aught to get at least 40 TSS for...

That's a bunch of active days considering all your traveling Chris! Kudos
