@aggi Steve estimated two schedules > http://oneyeartimetrial.org.uk/the-schedules-explained

Cheers

Cheers, should have suspected it was Jo's. :)

Should this link to Jo's daily chart update be in the OP?

Perhaps hippy can add it if people think it's useful.

Thats great. Where is it from?

Edit: Oops. Should have read the thread

I had a dream last night that I was looking at the latest version of this chart, and it had begun climbing again, with an even steeper curve than it had dropped because of his injury, and he'd already overtaken Tarzan by about a zillion miles and he was going stratospheric and it was glorious. "Kurt must be sick as a dog", I was thinking, in my dream. "He he!"

a return to two wheels yesterday, albeit with a flat pedal on his crook side

with the added bouns of a nice double gibbon, truly back in the saddle

GO STEVE!!!!!

50 cadence, 80/73/53 front rings and 11/32 rear cassette.

Thats an insane ratio hes running. and 50 cadence sounds awful.

@Hippy mention!

Now I am finally set up, so I am reverting back to the plan which is to start early at 2:30am for my first 200 by 10-ish. Then I’ll do a second 200 to get 400, and then just do extras after that.

Aww shucks.. someone that wasn't me wrote about me (ish).

50 cadence? 50?!

I liked this part I’ve had two flat tyres so far, and I needed a new bottom bracket already because I spend a lot of time out of the saddle turning those big gears.

Reminds me of

Surely a flat road and a velomobile would be easier?

The climbing Steve has done nearly doubles his nearest rival.
