For reference I can do 450ish for 5 at 74kg. And I have a threshold around 350ish.
You should be able to be a LOT faster with training.
If your value of 450 is correct. To have a threshold as low at 260 you must do very little cycling. I basically got on a bike and had a threshold around that. And a little training took it north of 300 quickly.
Oh. Sod Vo2 work now. Just ride as much as you can now. And loose as much weight as you can without sacrificing much power. Or just be chill and have fun... and beer.

Stop stealing my training tips.

Haha burn and compliment.
So threshold is on my Kicker, segments outside on my Quarq PM, so there maybe some difference. Obviously I can only assume they are accurate I have no idea how accurate Strava average power for a segment is but on a 3 min segment, seems like it should be long enough. Before TCR I was around 300-310 threshold. Then didn’t really ride till the new year. Last few months have started again with more lately.
I’ve very little chance of loosing any weight though.
Anecdotally it feels like it ties to when I used to run and that a mile was my best distance presumably on a duration basis. -
450w for 5 minutes is much more difficult than 450w for 3 minutes surely? Much more aerobic component?

You need to meet more normal cyclists

Ok well thats reassuring at least I won't make a total fool of myself.
Yeah I agree I seem to respond quite well to turbo training.
I'd imagine so. Best place to find a list of events?
