Nice post Sikochi. Reminds me of RapDaddyo from the epic thread.
Was it him who said 'cadence is a red herring'?
Didn't know there was a "magic number" for climbers. At 1.71 m that puts me at 1.73 lb/in.
5W/kg may be good for going up hill, but 260 W is not much use on the flat. I doubt I'll ever break the hour for 25 miles for example.
mike >> I've never worried about my power output.
If you've ever thought about or measured heart-rate or speed, power output is just the same, but a much more accurate and honest 'metric' for how much it hurts.
