Beautiful weather - so dry

More gentle cycling

Recovery week continues...

A slow and chilly 100

Bike to Västervik

I went fairly hard. About 45w and almost 3kph faster than last year, despite today being a solo effort in much colder conditions.

I pushed hard on most of the segments (Muur de Drättinge especially - new 5m power pb of 516w) but mainly focused on maintaining a high speed and power output throughout. I actually matched the pace for the guy that won last year. I was of course slower on the segments but I also didn't have a group to draft inbetween the raced sections.

The idea being was today that if i can do the segments quite quickly when properly fatigued that it'll be much easier at a more relaxed pace and in a big group.

Set up was pretty good for the course. Going to switch out my 40mm front tyre for a 45mm though.

Felt somewhat wrecked afterwards.
