Curious fact

Postby mrP(Boonen)VT » Fri Feb 08, 2008 1:02 pm

I don't know how all these power thingy's work, but did some geeky number crunching on last year's time trials, taking 3 riders and in EVERY case their average speed for 12 hours was EXACTLY 78% of their best 25 time :shock:

There you go George/Sylv, easy method to work out your 12 hour target.

Cool. That'll save me from riding a 12hr then; I'll just say I've done 246 miles :D

But George & Sylv will have to ride a 25 before they can work out their 12hr mileage.

I'll just have to improve my 25 time, then I can do 240 :wink:

I plan to ride at least 2 x 25's before the 12h, so then we'll be able to do some calculations :P
