Windsor Wool Mar 2021 1:37pm, 8 Mar 2021 5,057 posts	Quote Pin Windsor Wool 48:12 @ 4.2 w/kg for me last time up there JDA. Be sure to smash this not-really-a-cyclist skinny old man's time and set me an unreachable target (my FTP is up 20 since then so tempted by another go soon!).
jda Mar 2021 2:14pm, 8 Mar 2021 9,593 posts	Quote Pin jda My 49:17 was bang on 3.9, even tho it was a solo ride (TTT on new years' eve, but no nearby team mates). I think being heavy gives a slight edge even up hill (in terms of W/kg that is - I bet I did a lot more watts!), but I also paced that one nicely too. My aim is to set off about 4.3ish (350W) if legs are cooperating. I'm sure this is about the right ballpark but small margins can make all the difference as any marathon runner will know

Gobi Mar 2021 4:23pm, 8 Mar 2021 73,490 posts	Quote Pin Gobi 42.30 or so is my best did 43.30 at the end of the Haute Route 3 day. I'm 73kgs so not a skinny climber
Windsor Wool Mar 2021 5:02pm, 8 Mar 2021 5,058 posts	Quote Pin Windsor Wool my FTP is a MASSIVE 241 laughable! Fopp, are you a TVT member? I'm thinking about a Tri club membership, just thinking, as a way to get some more cycling / Zwift buddies.
Fopp Mar 2021 5:11pm, 8 Mar 2021 180 posts	Quote Pin Fopp Yes Wool, I know a couple of people have joined recently off the back of the Zwifting, where they got involved on an ad hoc basis and then joined up. You'd be more than welcome on both Zwift and real life. When the latter resumes. 241 isn't laughable, especially at your weight.
simbil Mar 2021 6:29pm, 8 Mar 2021 9,271 posts	Quote Pin simbil I'm not laughing WW, mine is similar and I must weigh a lot more than you judging by Alpe times 9th C cat for me in Absa Cape Epic Stage 1 this eve - just a little half hour race up the volcano for some punchy fun.

Angus Clydesdale Mar 2021 8:45pm, 8 Mar 2021 22,071 posts	Quote Pin Angus Clydesdale My FTP is 238 (equates to about 2.2 w/kg at the moment). But it's a lot better than it was, which is the most important thing for me.
Windsor Wool Mar 2021 9:19pm, 8 Mar 2021 5,060 posts	Quote Pin Windsor Wool agreed Angus, I’ve been really happy to improve over the last few months. I’ve perhaps improved more than I deserve given how little time I’ve really given to it. Really wish I could find it in myself to give more, it’s great fun but I’m still a runner for now at least! Thanks Fopp. Thinking about it...
