That's what I should have made clearer. I find around 100 just right for me. I've tried a bigger gear but it was too much. I've even been told that "around 100" is too slow! And that was from a national coach (fucking idiot)
Commuting and TTing is different though, you don't go flat out planning to get to work where your legs feel like jelly and your stomach wants to invert itself.
