Interesting racing today. 175’s. Bike shoes.
Worked on keeping my RPM’s down. Sure wish I had some type of meters so I could see my RPM, power and HR.
I have not gotten my garmin going again yet on the bike since I changed the cranks.
What was really interesting is at one point when I was low RPM’s, and on the flats, I tried to get another gear to gear down.
Guess what, nothing was there, I was already in the 50/11. So crank length and rpm’s clearly can impact a choice of gearing.
I wonder if there is data that could show using one crank length for the hills and a different length for the flats?
Fun stuff. Sure the right time of the season to be playing with this stuff.
I tried 150's on my Velotron on Friday. Was pretty tired so the HR was pretty high. Will give it a try again hopefully tomorrow.
