    And my average power for my best 3 laps comes out at 317w. No accounting for gradient, wind etc though. What do the power stats actually tell us though?

    I come in at about 284w-odd for my PB. That translates to tongue-hanging-out-all-the-way for me.
    FCN 2-4.

    Yup, I do *try* to pace it a bit unevenly in the interest of a good time as Jim says but I'm clearly not doing a very good job:) I always try to put some proper beans down going from Roehampton up to Richmond, a tailwind there seems to be the key to quick laps.

    I've sort of conditioned myself to try and ride isopower in order to get solid 2x20s in in the park. Now I have the turbo for that so it's time to start freewheeling Broomfield and absolutely nutting it up Dark...

    Going to try and make 3 laps a regular part of training this year and purposefully try different strategies. I'm going to bring in a bit more suprathreshold training than I currently do and see what difference that makes to my ability to burst and recover. No doubt tires, clothes, chain wear, wind, body weight, air density, PT calibration etc. will all confound but I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone's data:)

    Oops, scratch that bit about xPower and NP being very close. They are merely closeish: I have just checked and for the 297W ride my xPower was 304 W and my NP was 308 W, which goes some way to explaining Jim's surprise at my smoothness for the last two rides.
    Doh! I am a muppet.

    Had a little sneaky one in my "lunch hour"

    Horrible day out there, strong north wind so no help to anyone, no cars on the headwind sections but slow annoying cars whenever I had a tailwind or a junction. More importantly I wasn't feeling that good either.

    Good work out none-the-less.

    Rode 4 laps today round the park. First time this year. I wasn't exactly trying though and am quite happy with the time, not so happy about the weight however. I do expect the time to come down, hopefully the weight will come down accordingly :-)

    Finally my first post here, been following for a while but my times were too embarrassing to post, so today finally managed a 6 in front :lol:

    Conditions were awesome this weekend, sat a bit better than sunday, though a broken bottle holder ruined a great lap and also my motivation, but returning today made it worth while and got rewarded by a PB :lol:

    Street conditions were near perfect, the gravel is practically gone (it s much better than last weekend), no breaking down broomfield....otherwise few riders, traffic not too bad, a little bit of headwind up sawyer's....was real fun riding!!

    Good luck to everybody and see you out there!

    Congrats, and glad you made it to post, you should never be embarrassed to post your time though, it's a great motivator to improve, and always remember there's a lot of people not on the list who are even slower than you!

    PB'ing today, with a north west wind, and still in winter, means there's still plenty more free minutes to come later in the year, keep the training up and you'll be soon be "fast".

    Well my first attempt for the year, not overly pleased but then I only got back on the bike 2 weeks ago having been off since October recovering from a broken clavicle. By far and away the worst time I've ever done I think, much work to do on the fitness! Let's hope those times start decreasing soon.

    Hi, after a couple of years of plodding around RP I thought I'd start timing myself... wave as you go past the huffing bloke on the Trek 5500....

    Alright folks,

    Might give it a go round RP this weekend - looks like conditions will be good (north easterly on Sat and ESE on Sun). About time I posted a time for this year!

    Btw, can anyone give an indication of typical 10 mile TT times (flat course) in relation to RP 3 lap times? If I can do 3 laps in 58.57, what sort of time for a flat 10miler would I be looking at? Cheers!

    I did a 25 when in 54 minute time, but I was extremely un-aerodynamic, basically a bus, so that's likely an upper limit.

    Thanks JJ - useful stuff. Should probably work on my position too - don't feel that comfortable on the drops so rarely use them...

    OT a little - but I've just looked at that - it is the first time I've looked at the Garmin data and f&*k me, it is amazing. Speed, power, cadence etc etc, but you can also play it and move round the map! Very, very nice indeed. Got to find £300 now....

    Other than cadence and power, you can do all that on SportsTrack Live on Android, which is free. Costs a few quid if you want to upload stuff though. Might be worth a look until you've saved up for the Garmin?

    Well, recorded my first three lap time of the year yesterday. Good conditions, but my legs were feeling tired from the start and I clocked 60.53. Overcooked it on the first lap with a 19.24, then gave up for about half a lap before I pulled myself together and posted a pedestrian 21.27 second lap. Polished it off with a 20.02.

    Not much fun at all, but felt like a good work out. Niiiiice.

    What time were you in the park Abdou? I slotted in 6 laps between 1 and 3pm. Traffic was awful; the cops were ambushing; the deer were near the roads and the wind between robin hood and roehampton not that helpful. Apart from that I really enjoyed it :D (1:57 for the 6 laps FWIW)

    Edit: just reread your post: you were in RP on sat not sun.

    Awesome time for six laps...v nice indeed.

    Yep, I was out there on Saturday (got there about 2pm) and there was surprisingly little traffic. I think Saturdays generally might be a little quieter than Sundays - more people out shopping / doing other stuff.

    The road surface is still getting better too. We're almost back to square one after they re-did the surface!

    I was there on Sun as well (at the same time +/-) and yeah wasn't great at all...the more impressive your time!!

    in terms of police....did any of the 3 lappers had any troubles with the cops ie speeding or taking over cars? I read somewhere else that a guy almost lost his driving liscence because of "speeding" on the bicycle, though wasn't RP

    Pretty good conditions for it today - dry road, not that much wind.

    I still have no idea how Jim manages to make his NP so much higher than his AP, I just can't work any harder, I had a peak 1 minute power of 362W in there today, but still only NP 264W vs AP 254W.

    I tend to hammer it past cars a lot, here's lap 1 of the 3lap above:

    4358976515_13ac08244f_o.png

    Starting at Kingston Gate - See the overexcited start, where the first 90 seconds I average 432... then threshold across the top and the 400watt push up to the car park. 0 watts for the 15 seconds down the hill. Then steady threshold all the way to the start of the steeper bit up Sawyers. 30 seconds at 450 watts up the steepest part of sawyers.

    The overexcited out of the saddle sprint away from Richmond gate roundabout. 2 minutes descending to Ham @ 178 watts, punctuated by a 1000watt peak 15 seconds at 600watt overtake, and an overthreshold push to Kingston Gate.

    So basically, I use my anaerobic reserves hitting the sub 1 minute hills pretty hard, but also end up soft pedalling a lot behind cars, or sprinting past. I just can't ride even on that course - it's why I detest chain gangs on it too.

    Pretty good conditions? I thought it was windy as!
    18.50, 18.40, 18.22 to give a 55.52, PB of ~28s over August's time in the rain.

    Now, just need to actually do some consistant training and lose a few kg :-)

    Also, what's up with the surface? It's basically back to how it was before they added the gravel - less flinty stuff to get stuck in tires but bumpy bumpy on the rolling bit between ham and kingston gates (i think that's what they're called)

    Gonna give this a first bash tomorrow morning; three laps clockwise, then three anti-clockwise.

    Someone warm the bottom of that list up for me, please. :D

    Oh and if you see a red-faced geezer struggling away on his 13+ year old alu Peugeot Team Festina replica, say hello and give me some encouragement - I'll need it.

    Didn't get there in time to do twice round due to the pesky traffic. Relatively pleased with that for a first bash, especially given I was hampered by cars, rozzers and unfitness. Didn't feel too bad after the third lap, so carried on and went round one more time in just over 22 mins.

    Oh and if you were the time-trialler on the Cervélo, cheers for the tow between the cafe at Roehampton Gate and the hill just after Robin Hood Gate. :D
    One more gear

    Not been over to RP for a 3-lapper for a while.

    Fed up of removing all the tar from my bike afterwards.

    Aaargh, so close to going 2nd, but my chain came off when I shifted to the small ring for the steepest bit of Sawyers on the last lap, and I lost 15 secs or so putting it back on. Never mind, I'm sure JonGinge and Petromyzon would both have gone a lot faster if they'd done it in today's weather.
