    Why do you need a powermeter? Start going on club runs, learn how to race in a bunch, learn how to ride in the wind, learn how to hold a wheel, then start perhaps thinking about thinking about getting a powermeter.

    Once you're in the gutter getting a good kicking it means nothing!

    I really can't work out if this post is a joke. Bhima sounds more like a mobile greengrocer than a racing cyclist.

    Here is a picture of Bhima on his way to Tesco when he found out there was an offer on Bananas. Filling up those boxes should last him a week!

    Bhima,

    WRT the banana fixation, you would be unable to peel a banana on a chain gang, you can manage drinking ok though so it would be good practice. I only have something to eat if the ride is over 2 hours!

    "WRT"...? :?:

    At higher speeds, I find it easier to control the bike while eating. It's when going at 10mph that things get wobbly!

    I think i'd obviously be a bit more careful when there's other riders 5cm away although i'm getting better at high-speed-banana-technique!

    I think you've misunderstood the term 'a bunch sprint'!!

    It's not the bike handling that will be a limiting factor on banana consumption rate during a chaingang rather than the fact that you can't eat when you are breathing out of your Assos. Try it and you'll see what I mean. That's why gels are usually a better option during races.

    Except when numpties can't even open a gel whilst riding, and throw the litter away anyway.

    Please use Gel flasks, litter is bad!
