*January's CP20 test was a disaster and I blew far earlier than I'd have expected so we ignored it and continued using my FTP as calculated from summer TTs (CP20 = 295w / e.FTP = 280w, CP60 = 278w), however that is clearly an overestimate at the moment. This test I felt better and paced it better and so I think it's a reasonably accurate reflection of my current position. Looking forward to my first TT of the year though as I always perform better with a number pinned on.
