Hey Tapeworm, thought I would respond to this - and this is by no means disrespecting the quality of your posts, of which I think you provide excellent ones particularly in regards to training topics.
I am one of "those people" that were calling for the banning of
live power-meter
headunit-readouts during the race. NOT the banning of the power meter itself, just the ability of the rider (or DS) to read the numbers live during the race. That's a pretty big difference between "banning power meters" and what I actually stated. You are welcome to go back through this very thread and see what was stated.
Will recording of data still be possible? Yes: see track regulations, for example.
Will release of power data still be possible? Yes.
Do I still want the live
reading (not
recording) of power-meter data to be banned? Yes.
Thanks.
