    Bought myself a new toy yesterday - a power meter. Just the one ride using it so far but gives a very different insight into training. Quite happy with the numbers I'm seeing which match my expectations from indoor training on a power meter equipped stationary bike which I use in winter.


    BTW.
    Beware online sellers that you don't know!
    Initially tried to buy one in February but five months later all I've had are excuses, promises that come to nothing and far-fetched attempts to blame everyone else apart from them from completing the order. Asked for a refund and they refused.

    To add insult to injury the company (Powermeter24 based in Germany) are still advertising the power meter at a very good price when they know they can't deliver it.
    Still blaming lack of supplies from the manufacturer or distributors when my local bike store got one in 24hrs!


    Which one did you get? I have a stages, it has been a great tool. I have the same experince as you with off the beat online shops, fortunately mine refunded.

    20:35 hrs, 510 km and 6000 metres of elevation for July so far.

    190 miles for the week.
    475 for the month.
    3,090 for the year.


    Did an Audax event and Century ride today but had the biggest and fastest ever bicycle crash for me at just 14 miles in - didn't see a sunken drain / pothole in dappled sunlight under trees on a fast descent and handlebars flipped to full lock and I exited stage left.

    Both rider and bike rather battered but decided to continue and reassess after another 5 miles when the shock had worn off. AC joint took a huge hit but not too sore when locked in position, one knee very swollen and couldn't tolerate standing cycling or high cadence and left a lot of skin on the road. But I could still ride so rather than waste the day continued to the end. Really not my day as a wasp decided I wasn't hurting enough and stung me on my good leg!

    But got it done, back injury held up, energy levels were good and I'm now confident I will do OK on the RideLondon 100 in a couple of weeks. Handlebars and a slightly buckled front wheel need some TLC.

    Went for the Favero Assioma.
    Very pleased with it so far.

    Well I’m out for awhile😢. Fell and broke my collar bone yesterday at a local Enduro race. I hope to get my gravel bike on my trainer when I’m not in major pain....Keep on riding 😉

    What a shame - you can get T-shirts for "The Clavicle Club" BTW.
    Hope you feel better soon.

    Luckily I've just displaced the AC end of my clavicle as X-rays confirmed today.
    Now matches the other one which I displaced a few years ago.

    Black comedy I suppose but I limped into hospital today for them to investigate my knee and came out with my arm in a sling!!

    I'm not a member of this thread, but I'm butting in with a (maybe dumb) question: do you have to use clip-ins on a road bike? I ride a mountain bike for fun, and I don't use clip-ins because I'm a big chicken and I'm awkward enough surviving the trails without having to deal with clipping in and out of my pedals on short notice. Sure, I don't have as much power, but I have fun without them so I don't worry about it. (I'm gonna admit that I get stressed out about certain little things that seem insignificant to others, and dealing with clip-ins is one of those certain little things.)

    I recently thought it might be fun to try road cycling, but a friend told me I'd have to get clip-ins for that. Pardon my ignorance, but is that really true? Do they not make regular pedals for road bikes? I'm not trying to race anyone or max out my potential, just have a relaxing ride. I don't feel I need more power and leverage. Everyone I know with a road bike has clip-ins. It seems absurd that you couldn't just switch in regular pedals like I have on my mountain bike. Or is it just totally egregious to be seen on the road with regular pedals??? :/

    I do not use biking (clip) shoes or pedals. My toes go numb occasionally so I take my feet off the pedals to shake them. I’ve just never felt the need to buy them. I ride about 60-70 miles a week.

    Of course you don't "have" to! That's your friend exaggerating.
    Use flats if you prefer. It's OK to be an individual rather than a sheep! :smiley:

    On my hybrid I have double sided pedals with flat one side and SPD fittings on the other. Shorter urban rides I wear trainers, longer rides I wear MTB shoes and clip in.

    There's a lot of advantages to clipping in (power transfer, stability, comfort, smoother pedalling efficiency) but do what you like. If you end up doing a lot of road riding then more than likely you will transition at some point which is what you are seeing in the roadie demographic. I've also saved a couple of big slides which would have been impossible if my feet had come off the pedals. Unclipping as you slow down becomes second nature.

    I live on the edge of the London urban sprawl and have to contend with traffic before I get to the countryside so use my cleats on the lowest tension setting to unclip easily. I've only toppled over twice in many thousands of miles, once on first ride with cleats (didn't read the instructions on how to adjust the tension and fell over gently after having to do an emergency stop), second time I had bonked and my mind was very confused.

    The disadvantages tend to come when there's a lot of stop/starts in traffic for example or you get fired over the handlebars and put a lot of torsion through your legs before the cleats release (ask me how I know!!).

    OK, cool. Thanks for the feedback! That makes me feel better about trying out road biking. :D

    Another option is the older style toe clips, i ride in the inner city and see quite a lot of commuters use this, keeps your foot in position but you are not fastened in.

    New to MFP but not to cycling. Making a comeback after a disastrous 6 months where I just "fell of the wagon" as they say. Eating crap. Drinking lots. No exercise. No desire to take care of my fitness. Kind of a burn out. I did a century I do every year in November that depending on the schedule, is 3 or 4 days before my birthday. My way of celebrating. I turned 66 in 2018 and was in excellent form. I did it in just a bit over 6 hours. A PR for me. I was riding 130 to 150 miles per week training for it over 3 months. Weight was way down. Now that I finally woke up, I'm up 40 pounds.

    I have to go to a formal event in 8 weeks and I just didn't feel like buying another suit at a bigger size, so I am on my bike trying to get my edge back.

    So far, in 14 days, I've done 8-22 milers. Been going to the gym to fight gravity the other 6 days. I am a 7 day a week guy. Eating clean- lots of green roughage and lean fish and chicken. My goal is to get back to 130 +/- miles per week. I can drop 1.5 to 2 lbs per week if I just stay away from the distractions.

    2019.07.14 ~ 22.31 miles in 1:35:52.
    2019.07.16 ~ 22.36 miles in 1:35:09.
    2019.07.17 ~ 22.47 miles in 1:34:53.
    2019.07.20 ~ 22.53 miles in 1:33:40.
    2019.07.21 ~ 22.56 miles in 1:32:47.
    2019.07.22 ~ 22.46 miles in 1:31:05.
    2019.07.24 ~ 22.47 miles in 1:30:30.
    2019.07.25 ~ (today) 22.46 miles in 1:30:25.

    All 8 rides on the same course. Just trying to get my legs back for the first few weeks. My weight hasn't gone down, but my time on the saddle has. Eventually I should be doing this ride in about an hour fifteen to an hour 20 minutes (16 to 17 MPH).

    Friday 2019.07.26, at the gym. No time to do a bike ride but always time to spend an hour fighting gravity.

    2 more rides this weekend. Not exactly doing them with stopwatch in hand yet, but pleased my time is getting much better. A few minutes more, a few minutes less is all the same to me, but the faster I go, the harder I work. Feels good.

    2019.07.27 ~ Sat ~ 22.52 miles in 1:26:02.
    2019.07.28 ~ (today) 22.62 miles in 1:25:52.

    Total for this week, 5 rides, 112.53 miles. 8105 calories burnt (f you believe Garmin ~ I don't, and I don't care).

    Keep going guys.

    Just a few short rides on my hybrid this week as I let my injuries settle down and heal.
    Supposed to be a taper week before a Century ride but how do you taper down from just 16 miles! :smiley:

    Couple of hospital appointments coming up so hopefully the picture will become clearer if I can ride without causing more damage.

    Physio has confirmed my suspicions I've torn the medial ligament in my knee but no apparent significant cartilage damage. Ligament should heal in a couple of months but good news is I can do the Century ride next weekend as long as I'm sensible.

    Ouch!

    I think a TdF participant did something that just recently!

    Got the bike repaired after my tumble: front wheel trued, derailleur hanger straightened, new bar tape.
    Legs are a mess but the bike is riding perfectly!

    The most unstructured and haphazard training build up to a big event I've ever done but got the basics in of a decent volume (36hrs / 540 miles), a reasonable amount of climbing (7500+ meters) and lost a few pounds of weight as well.
