Re: Kona and Age Group Power [Russ Brandt]
don't forget that riding an all black bike is worth 5 watts. If you had peeled off your wheel decals it would have been worth another 5 watts ;)

edit: I miss my P4

Another data point. I was 4:55 with 199w avg, 213 NP. I weighed 163lbs raceday. I'm fairly certain this was due to the good conditions. I have files from two training rides in Phoenix where I achieved similar speed for the wattages. That is why I targeted riding around 200-215 watts for the majority of the ride, lifting to around 230-270 for Hawi and the shorter climbs. I'd also have to contribute some of my efficiency to a visit to the Faster windtunnel in Scottsdale. They dialed in my fit and gave me more speed for my watts, no doubt. When we were hitting the headwinds and I was in my optimized aero position I was flying by others from miles 80-100.
