If one makes a solid effort to start sprinting again while indoors on the trainer, next Spring will be quite exciting when one goes back outside for the first time with a new-found sprinting capability!
I was on Zwift yesterday doing the first sprints of the season. Even though I'm slow and old, I still managed to place in the top 25%. That could mean that only 25% of the riders through there were actually sprinting and I came in last! I know the riders close by weren't sprinting.
