I am not concerned about the exact 200m time, so much as in my estimation my road sprint is a full second faster than my track sprint based on my best analysis. On the road I do very well, on the track I am very inconsistent ... and last year was no where near the top the sprinters.

My hope is that it is "just" leg speed and I have been working on it, but the local sprinters are just flying now. Guys I could beat 10 years ago now smoke me. I understand there will always be younger and faster guys, but I am hoping to keep up with the 40+ crowd this year.

52-15 is nearly the same as a 49-14 ... I use both depending on chain length. And I hate the flying 100 in a small gear or anything at high RPM workout ... but I know that is what I need to do. I keep fighting myself with work on your weakness vs focus on your strength and need to get over my dislike of high RPM workouts.

or maybe I just need to pop the 53-13 on my track bike and see if that gets me there no extra work needed.
