LOL thanks, I am aware of that and that's why I join the C group rides mostly, though with this tour there's a big difference in distance between B&C so I have been joining some B rides. Maybe that's why I'm getting my butt kicked. Riding in the real world my wattage is much lower (cars, stop lights, wind, etc....) so would probably get dropped like a bad habit.
Pete Heski - yeah hills are my enemy and even the slightest incline for any distance puts me way back from where I started. I need to be putting out way over 3 W/Kg to keep up the same pace I'm riding on the flats and I just don't have that strength.
