    Without the science/data side to it, training is much less fun. I'm already seeing some significant power gains, with only 3 months of training.

    So you're at what... 4.65 W/kg?

    Not even close, unfortunately. And based on your Waterfall climbs, you're way stronger than I am.

    At 70kg, I have a pretty low FTP. But, I can approach 1000W in a sprint. Many of my rides end up with an IF a lot higher than 1.0, because I can sprint a lot better than I can hold power for long durations. The sprinting really skews my NP.

    This thread inspired me to take my bike out today. Nursing a couple injuries still, but it was a good ride.

    Great! The weather has been beautiful around here, but today was an off day for me. I'll be out bright and early.

    Clearly I wasn't serious enough when I was into cycling because I have no idea what the heck you're talking about
    Nice ride. I need to either get off my rear and start riding again or sell off my stuff for gun money. Might keep the fixed gear bike just so I can torture myself though.

    In gun terms, I showed up for an AFHF class with a pair of custom Heirloom 1911s and ran a 9s FAST.

    I'm new to cycling but I'm ready to learn and I have all of the tools needed to get better.
