If this were a comment about his bike Rich would take it on board, but a reasonable comment on his build and he's in denial... Rich, Ryan is trying to help. Not be a jerk. You are a 'bigger guy'.RyanH wrote: ↑Wed May 23, 2018 7:17 pmWhat power meter are you using? Your watts/speed seems off. A CdA of 0.22 seems really low for a big boy . I think your Merckx style TT's suggested the same CdA which would be more far fetched. Congrats on the results though, those speeds are legit, especially the Merckx style ones.CrankAddictsRich wrote: ↑Tue May 22, 2018 12:38 amA couple of pics form my TT this past Saturday... horrendous weather, pissing down rain. It is a 13.7 km course... essentially a big ractangle with three 90* turns. I averaged 329 watts, 178 bpm, and 45 kph. I took 2nd in the Cat 1/2/3 class, missing the top step by 10.8 seconds.
And if I have noted anything from racing, comparing speeds around the world is a bit of a fools errand. So much can vary them. Best to compare to what the fastest on the day were doing. And I kinda feel they would be doing more than 4.5w/kg.
