The good thing about pathetic numbers is that there's plenty of room for improvement (my last ride gave me an FTP estimate of 1.7W/kg which is below untrained on Coggan's charts. I've seen the lofty heights of 2.39W/kg before; almost busting through 'untrained' into Cat 5).
(OK, so these were figures taken from a longer ride and not a specific testing protocol, but I don't have a turbo and I've no interest in trying to maintain x Watts for any period of time out on the road.)
