skinny

I've found a new training ride that destroys me. Purpose it to kind of simulate a road race, where you ride easy for a bit then have to make a good effort. Plus it's glycogen depleting so gets harder and harder.
Feel free to try, make it shorter if lower CTL.

Made 2 versions of that on TrainerRoad if anyone wants to look it up, its called 'Getting Skinny'

First version is the full 4 hours
Second version is a 1 hour crunched down version.

I'm not adverse to long turbo sessions, but the thought of that session indoors is not pleasant.
