I just did my first FTP test. It was going well (though during my first five mins I was too conservative) but after 12 mins the carcass of my rear tyre ripped. I had to get off, remove the carcass from the tyre then jumped back on and finished the test. Not ideal!
Just uploaded the file to trainingpeaks and its given me a 20 minue average of 15w higher than trainerroad - is this because it smooths out the spikes? It took me about 45 seconds to get off, remove the carcass and get riding again.
