From: Newton Ctr. MA

Bikes: 2 cdale Caad7. Scatantte CX/winter bike. SS commuter.

AM: 20' elliptical, 10' weights.

PM: 2 hours Z2. did 2 x 3:25" "Aero test"

using same bike I held 2 positions for 1.25 miles on the identical course.

pegged wattage at a steady 346 AP and 96 RPM.

1: In the invisible aerobars, I did 22.3 MPH.

2: On the hoods with elbows just slightly bent, I averaged 20.7 MPH.

Course was windy and just slightly uphill.

Statistically significant?

seems so.
