Okay, so I went out yesterday at sub-70.3 pace on my Race Setup to see how the setup felt and wear my new trisuit on the bike.
Curious what speed people think I can do in the same conditions on a different course. I'll ride at 270W for the race. Terrain is similar for the race.
1) AP 236W, NP 246W
2) 23.1 MPH
3) 48.5 Miles
4) 71 kg
5) 2010 Cannondale Slice, Flo disc/90, Giro Air Attack, 2XU Project X trisuit.
6) Rode an out and back course with 9-180° turns where I had to coast to slow down due to traffic then nearly stop when turning. My race will have 2 180° turns. Hit 3 red lights where I had to lose all momentum from a long downhill. I'm thinking 1-2 minutes of time saved for those in a race.
