Doper though, to be fair, so Morton is still the champ. :wink:

Doping is legal when you arenā€™t a licensed pro.

Sweet Iā€™m going to start shooting up then for my USAC races since Iā€™m not a licensed pro.

I donā€™t need to but just wanted to illustrate the lack of reality associated with your comment. But yes if you want to chase KOMā€™s, a needle in the ass is all good. But Lachlan is still the champ in my book :wink:

Cool. :+1:t6:

Looks like arbitrariness is the real champ. :trophy:

Apart from thatā€¦you know the un-edited version. :mask:

Not arbitrary. I said Lachlan was the champ, being drug free. You said anyone that isnā€™t a pro can dope. I said that is not correct, because as you are likely aware, that is incorrect. However I used sarcasm to intimate my point which may have been confusing although anyone holds a USAC license or similar would probably catch the drift. Then I said Lachlan is the champ because heā€™s not a doper and Contador is. If that feels arbitrary, I can probably simplify it more for you. Let me know how best to proceed, specifically of course. Otherwise, moving onā€¦

And the PROOF that heā€™s drug free isā€¦???

And the PROOF that AC is doping isā€¦???

Yes, best move on. :v:t6:

52

And the PROOF that the Captain is drug free after these posts isā€¦???

Hard to come by honestly.

Your original comment was ā€œDoping is legal when you arenā€™t a licensed pro.ā€ Which is laughably incorrect. So yeah, move on because now you want to contradict your own comment.

Whataboutism. Yawn.

Moving back to the specific topic of the Everesting record, I wonder if we (the TR community) would be in a position to contemplate a TR ā€˜Everesting recordā€™ ?

Indoors might be a pain in the ass (literally) but it might be cool to see what sort of ā€˜real worldā€™ times can be posted by some of the super fit guys and gals on this forum.

Personally I doubt I could ride that much elevation over 2 days, never mind one ride, but Iā€™d be inspired by those who could and did.

Maybe a thread dedicated to this?
Just a thought ā€¦

We have a dedicate thread on Everesting (real world) and Virtual Everesting (inside on a some like Zwift, as the main one that is ā€œapprovedā€ by Hells500).

So you can do the research and find the virtual goal you want to hit. Note that a few pros have already hit that virtual world too.

The TR platform definitely has the capability to create a ā€˜Most People Completing an Everesting Challenge at One Timeā€™ world record attempt. Get Guinness involved and even Iā€™d do it!

Any current info on mass Everestings?

we need @mcneese.chad to set up an official Everesting day and someone to create the workout in builder.

A TR based workout will be interesting, since an effort will differ greatly based on rider weight and the expected grade.

Zwift, RGT Cycling, FulGaz and the like all use the rider info and hill info to estimate speed up and down grades. If TR ever implements a ā€œsimulationā€ option (as mentioned by Nate), then it would be more direct.

Short of that, we either need to run some number estimates for a range of rider weights. But something like that could be done if we donā€™t want to use one of the other sim apps.

After being involved in the Speed and Distance Thread, I find that hilarious. Many were arguing against properly calculating speed, and now you want it? :man_shrugging:

Just use one of the other softwares for vEveresting.
