I have a Stages left modified Ultegra R8000 crank. As PMs go reasonably priced, and good enough for my needs. My need is actually to convince myself I'm making progress when it feels like I'm not - that's when I'm prone to start working way too hard and get myself injured. But the numbers don't lie, so chill, recover, and let time work its magic.
What do you use to measure HRV? I've been considering getting on the WHOOP bandwagon, again not so much to optimize my efforts as to make sure I get enough recovery. I can of course feel my pulse and tell roughly where I'm at, problem is I don't know how reliable that is.

I use an electrical ECG strap and Elite HRV, a free app. I looked at WHOOP, but the recurring costs weren’t worth it and I’m still not sure an optical system can give you accurate timing even with “genius” processing and hours of data. I don’t think they’ve published anything peer reviewed on it.

On particularly horrible days, when I'm certain my power meter is broken, I put my Powertap wheel on, and compare.... Alas.....

Like the mariners in the celestial navigation and dead reckoning days, who carried two chronometers and used the mean.

I’m not strong on stats, but can there be a mode with two observations?
We did a 700 mi. ocean race celestial a few years ago and just hacked all our crummy quartz watches to GPS time before the start. We were only five nautical miles off our fix when we turned on the GPS.

Apologies for the topic deviation, but where would one be able to purchase a velomobile? Or at least I think that's what we call them? One of those fully faired bicycles.

You mean there is no velomobilesdirect.com?!? I remember looking into these awhile ago but got scared away by the high cost.

There won't be a ton, but but hopefully enough to make it worthwhile to train for them.
Speaking of, valygrl went from crit state champ, to stopping mass start, due to concussions. It took a couple, but she is now a TT state champ.
