As a non-drinker, it seemed like as good a way to start the year as any. How did yours go? My FTP came in 2 watts lower than the estimate I’d used to do SSB MV1 - so happy with that result and ready to take on MV2 with the revised number. Then start building it in February!

I did. I didn’t drink but I didnt eat either and the results were just bad.

I’ll then be taking my rest week as I am traveling and won’t ride for 5 days. I’ll return to take a ramp test and my first race will be that following weekend! It’s a C-race, …

Yep I’ve just done a ramp test. 265>282 but with half a stone on. Still I’m very pleased with that.

Post surgery I created a very detailed roadmap to get me back where I wanted, some of it was rooted in reality, and some of it was a bit fantastical. I labeled the fantastical stuff as my “stretch goals” and the rest as my actual targets. So far I’m within 5% of where I wanted to be, and I actually …
