• You've had such a good season! Here's hoping you can top it off in the big one...

    Speaking of which, anything specific you want me (and friends) to shout at you on Sunday to wring out those last couple of watts? Are you David or Dave? Or will 'HULK SMASH' suffice?

  • Hah, thanks! Yeah, I think consistent training over the year and a kilo less bike has made a big difference. Wondering about next season now. Same again with TrainerRoad (starting from an increased baseline of course) or mix it up and try something different? I suspect I’ll stick with TR, based on the significant increase in power I’ve managed to achieve so far.

    David is good - it’s all a wall of noise really but your name comes through most effectively. I’m number 95 (off at 12:05). Thanks for any and all support!

  • I've just been catching up with this thread and wanted to offer my congratulations too. You're having a fantastic season. Very best of luck at the Nationals too. I have a mate riding it (Hugh Smith - Woolwhich), a really nice guy who's very new to the HC scene, so will tell him to keep an eye out for you.

    If you don't mind me asking, did you pick your own TR sessions as you went or did you follow one of their plans?

  • Awesome, I'll come say hi if I spot you before/after, but otherwise I'll make sure you hear me on the way up! There should be at least four of us, and we've got a handful of cowbells, and I'll try and take some pictures too if that's not too much to multi-task.

  • Will also be cheering for you. Dunno if you need any local advice but I grew up in Stocksfield and I can tell you that from the HQ to start is a reasonable distance uphill. I'd recommend warming up in the car park across the road from the Dr Syntax if there's space.
