All that sports nutrition; it’s only a Zwift Crit lasting 30 mins :joy:

Is it off at 12.30? I would have done it, but did 60km in the rain this morning with a mate.

I’ve gone with pre race meal of toast … Washed down with some fruit pastilles 🤷

E’s are good

Oh-oh
He’s Ebenezer Good

A lovely song extolling the virtues of MDMA.

RE: sports nutrition
Banana I’d have had anyhow.
Gel is non-caffeine, so added pro plus
Tabs are zero electrolyte Protect+ ones
And a fisherman’s friend, as I feel I can breathe better

Electrolytes for such a short race?

Anyway, is there any way I can watch this epic occurrence of a race?

Turmeric and ginger.

Water is awful so it helps me drink!

Said no species ever

Oh my days think that was the hardest ride I have ever done. Well done Poet and mw22, busted my donkey to stay with you right til the end. Doubt I’d have managed to hold on without you guys being there.

Zwift says new FTP 275W -> 285 W !!!

Edit - just seen you came 5th Poet and within 1 second of the win. NICE

No problems!

I cannot sprint IRL and my trainer is wheel on and starts slipping at around 600W.
I can get about 800W max out of it.
It also lifts off the floor.

A club mate is selling a Kickr v5 for £750…might see what Santa says.

ALSO: checked in my weight. I seem to be 100g heavier than I put on Zwift. Sorry

Why isn’t 2nd DQd?
No HR for him :rage:

My race craft is shocking - look at my power!
Mind you, @NickBerry should be ashamed :see_no_evil::wink:

If they dont set HR as a factor you won’t get DQ

You surge too much. You need to back your power off before you hit the front of the group…otherwise the group comes past as speed, you have no draft and you shoot back, then your upping power to get back in.

Watching you was like a game of tennis going back and forth :rofl:

Considering I did 3 races on that course last week, in a massive silly fast field - inc a very short TT - now sure how the hell I got PBs for the full route, 5 laps, and my 2nd ever top of climb to finish (when I didnt even sprint). Pace was silly
