team time trialling
Last time I trained on the aerobars was for Tokyo ~ Itoigawa. Tucked down in a position I can hold for hours on end. Maximum speed. Maximum comfort.
I put the aerobars back on today in preparation for the Uchinada team TT. Tucked down in a position I can hold while on the front for maximum speed.
My only experience of a team TT was at Gunma CSC a few years ago.
This time we are a combined team:
F (t) Racing’s Umiguchi san and Oono san
じょんのび TIME’s Kitano san and Andy
= F(t)じょんのびtime麒麟山
Four riders of similar strength. Hopefully we’ll take equal turns pulling on the front. However, we should analyze the course to decide who will pull where and when and who will lead through the corners.
Today I tried to simulate the effort of a team TT riding solo on the coast road.
Into a headwind
Using a ball park figure of 30s, I did 30s hard to simulate being on the front. I then did 90s at high tempo to simulate being 4th, 3rd and 2nd man. Standard 1:3 intervals but with the rest interval being of relatively high intensity. I did 25 minutes into a really strong wind and then turned back.
With a tailwind
With the wind on my back I did 60s hard followed by 120s high tempo. With the wind on my back I was touching 50 kmph at times. Oh, to be Fabian Cancellara! Another 25 minutes with a final interval on the climb behind the power station at 35 kmph.
Thursday’s training: coast road TTT simulation
(55 km, 35 kmph, 200 m climbing, )
