She'd never ridden a bike competitively before last year and didn't get dropped in a real race (happened in a training crit once when she moved from c->b). With a ftp that low her Z2 tops out at 133w and she's like "that's it?". Not even sweating. It seems like either I'm totally dead wrong or she's been riding tempo for like every.single.ride ever. Clearly we needed help last year. At least we have a plan now.

I'm making her do an indoor TT tonight. Right to not let her see power?
Well, one of you will get to say "I told you so" at least
