WTRL TTT week #66 race reports

[RojoRacing]

I didn't hop on discord post-race for the debrief because I had to prepare for my zone 8 doubleheader.

My espresso team started with 6 lost 1 due to ant+ dropouts and finished 5 strong just in the top 20. We did the leg snapper climb in exactly 60s each of the 3 laps which ain't bad for pacing if you ask me. Averaged 299w which was pretty good since I felt like it was an off day for me, no snap in the legs.

Followed up with a Frappe team in zone 8, my main job was to pace the team up the climb at exactly 5.0wkg which I nailed, compared to the 6.5 we did an hour the hardest thing about 5.0 was holding back to maintain it. I made sure to sit in the second spot and push whoever was pulling as much as possible because overall the pace just felt slow. We were keeping the pulls to just under 5.0 whereas zone 7 we were 6.0+ so I just felt relaxed the whole race when in the pack. I ended up finishing with 290w average so nearly the same performance on my part even though it felt so much easier, there my mind goes messing with me again.

No live streams this week.

Always like your reports and we missed you afterwards but I guess a doubleheader is a good enough excuse. We’ll have to let it go this time.

I "joined" the Cruzbike discord channel after my TTT, but no one ever showed up? - waited about 10 mins until about 8:45 EDST - so I finally left. Maybe someone can confirm the channel I am supposed to be on.

Larry, This is what mine looks like on the Cruzbike channel on my iPhone:

Were you with ATP Racing 6? You killed us 38.09 to 40.17ish!

(We need to stick together better as a group, we had a couple times we broke up and that hurt.)

This is what I see -
CT says Cruzbike Tribe. When I click +, it says I need an invite - guess someone needs to invite me to the other one.
yes - I was with ATP6 - We had a pretty good effort and I think we all hit close to highs (W/Kg) for the TTT rides - (Think I hit 3.8)+ we rode at 5.0 up the steep hill - which took one guy out at the 2nd attempt.

You should have a new invite. Delete any previous Cruzbike channels before joining this new one. If that doesn't work let me know and we'll figure it out. Anyone else who might like to listen in on the after race chats and need an invite let me know.
