Indeed. To put some numbers to this, here's an account of a 90 km ride I did several years ago: I was roped into a team entry for a Half Ironman. Despite being more of a runner, I did the 90 km bike leg which was effectively a solo "time trial" (no drafting allowed) on a standard road bike with clip on aerobars. After averaging 35.0 km/h on the mostly flat (~600m elevation gain) course, I was exhausted. The SRM Powermeter I borrowed for the race said I had averaged a "measly" 215 W! |
