    "Winter" - Cruzbike Virtual Time Trial Challenge

    Wow! Alex makes our Winter TT group 13 strong. For those of you who don't know: Alex is the "other" strong man besides Jason. Only 140 pounds and I have seen him ride close to 4W/Kg for an hour in a Hare & Hounds race. He stayed at the front the whole hour, while I could not stay with the group...

    "Winter" - Cruzbike Virtual Time Trial Challenge

    Looked at your data and wondered what happened - That explains it - but still with only "part" of a "left quad" - you still manage to dwarf the rest of our power making abilities. haha. I see you have take the strategy of really banging the power on the uphills and letting back on the downhills...

    "Winter" - Cruzbike Virtual Time Trial Challenge

    Welcome to the group Alex - From the analysis mode, I was able to zoom into your data and "guess" you time for the 2laps as 36:22 with avg power of 244 and avg HR of 170. If you take your Strava ride and crop the front stuff off and resave it should calculate the Segment the way you want it! I...

    Test riding a true racing recumbent

    It has been my experience that eventually there is no real "pulling or pushing" on the handlebar to counteract what you all "the leg action". I think the legs just eventually take over entirely. Many people can ride no hands for long periods of time. I ride with the tiny little stubby handlebar...

    Yes - You set a PB by 10 seconds - so far you are in 1st place this week. You will stay there so long as no one else better's there PB by more than 10 secs - which is actually quite hard to do after 6 weeks. Congrats

    "Winter" - Cruzbike Virtual Time Trial Challenge

    The goal was not to get to 15 miles exactly. The goal was to find some number of "loops" that comes close to 15 miles. (2 laps of Volcano flat is 15.33) which is what everyone else is doing. 6 laps of the volcano circuit is "about the same. It does not really matter that the distances are...

    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!

    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!
