Really.
Planning is underway.
You live in the sticks.
Any big plans for your 40k post, Velo Vol? It’s not far off.

No. I didn't win. I got dropped. But guys riding @ 130 watts per hour just rode away from me like I was nailed to the road.
That is my highest ever watts per hour. 279 watts per hour average. At one point they were 1:50 in front of me. I managed to bring them back to 20 seconds at one point .
so thats what I just can't understand. How can I get dropped when I'm pushing more than double the wattage of the weekest guy on the ride?

Also make sure you're using the best bike available to you in game. No mountain bike, no heavy bikes. https://zwiftinsider.com/fastest-bikes-at-each-level/
Then if there's more than a couple other riders, try hard to stay in the draft. As soon as you hit the front or fall a few meters behind, you loose the draft effect and have to work harder.

Probably geometry-driven due to her size. She's only 5' tall.
The builder is at a point where he needs a decision on cable routing. He's recommending SRAM eTap AXS, which allows for 1x or 2x.
His shop is amazing. He has a different machine for each tube type. One is a lathe from the 50s that was originally used by the Department of the Navy. He also has a large CNC mill so he now makes his own dropouts.

I read last night that he was running late to a golf outing with Drew Brees and another NFL quarterback. It appears pretty obvious that he was going too fast. The news reports say no indication of impairment. It happened about 7 in the morning.
