Diff’rent strokes…
I cruise at around 90. Threshold intervals with concentration I usually bump up to 95-100. In contrast to you, my cadence starts slowly creeping up under duress to the point where I’m usually doing 110-115 in the last minute of V02max intervals. I’ve actually started making a conscious effort to bring that down to 100-105.
Sadly most of my events are MTB on technical trails, so I need to work on reducing my cadence…
