I agree with the other points, but the guy is an absolutely horrible wheel to follow, in the same way that MEA is.

One of my problems at the end of our state RR was that I had stupidly just never thought of changing the cassette on my Zipps for that race, and went with 53/39 and 12/25. That was fine until the final climb when I was already red-lined. DOH!

I did a 20' power test this morning, after a TT leg opener yesterday. I fully expected to break my PR, and did, coming in at 318w (3w above what I targeted). That puts me at 3.72 w/Kg. My Cat1/40+ teammate just tested at 4.45, and he has a 1,700w kick. Kids... whatcha gonna do, huh? He also rides the most aero S5 that has probably ever been put together. I think the Di2 battery is inside the HT, and the computer is tucked behind the stem. Owning a wind tunnel has its advantages.

We're basing my training going forward on a 293w FTP, and that "feels right" to me.
