Pescocostanzo 11-6-11 Realaxiom race

I raced Pescocostanzowith Bombas & Megahutz (Goblin was offline). The course is 30 miles long with a 3,200 foot elevation gain, mostly from a 7 mile climb. I was tired from racing Legnano the day before, so I took off fast at the start & gained a 1.4 mile lead before the climb. Megahutz caught me a little before the top & took a 0.5 mile lead to the final hills. I battled him to the end, but was defeated in the last 1/2 mile of the race. Great race everyone!

Lucas,

No, you can only set the gap by: speed of each rider, distance between riders, total distance traveled for each rider, power output for each rider, cadence for each rider & heart rate for each rider.

The music was selected from my library. I would much rather listen to music than hear myself hack & wheeze trying to get up a mountain. Plus, my bike & the trainer make a lot of noise too!

Thanks for your questions!

1/3 of a extra knob turn or 10psi more rear tire and power for the same speed will be 10% more. Nice toy, but it's easy to cheat and go faster due the roling being a big part of the resistance. I have a RealPower and run on PowerTaps since 2005 - have faster sessions on same course with lower power numbers. On the other hand, it can give riders a chance to equalize it, like a "handcap" system. The better you are, make it harder to you untill it gets paired with others.. Regards, Clythio.

thank you a lot for your answer. Uhm I thought there it was the time-gap between riders such as a real road race...eheheh. Good feedback to send to tacx to implement the software. I think it is possible.

ciao!

good training session. Is it possibile set the gap with others riders with time instead of distance ?

And the music ?
