PRL Full complete. All the route badges now done. Can’t say that one was entirely enjoyable! I’ll very happily not visit the London map for a very long time.
RUN DOWN OF THE RIDE:
- Completed it in just a touch over 5hrs - 5:05:30
- I weigh 72kg
- Averaged 234w (239w NP) for the ride. So, I rode the course at 3.25w/kg
- Most of the ride was in endurance or in Tempo: 2hr 20min Endurance and 2hr 6min in Tempo
- My strategy was to ride up Box Hill in high Tempo - Sweet Spot (88% FTP) - and then I rode the flats either high Z2 or low tempo. Seemed to work well for me.
- Rode the Speedmax CF SLX Disc with Enve 7.8 wheels
NUTRITION
Brekkie was Oats with Buckwheat cereal, peanut butter and a banana sliced on top. On bike snack at 1hr 30 min and had a banana and an SIS energy gel. On bike snack at 2hr 30min and had a Cliff Bar and an SIS energy gel. On bike snack at 3hr 30min and had a SIS GO Energy Banana Bake (get on them! Unreal. 30g carbs and 10g fructose) and an apple. Three water bidons, and another bidon filled with electrolytes.
Hope that helps to anyone out there reading this thinking of knocking PRL full off their Zwift route badge list!
