One point four W/kg!!! What kind of bull is that? What's the point?
Can't say I've ever seen that. 1.4 W/kg and they are passing you on a climb while you are up at 3.5 W/kg? The physics of that just doesn't make any sense. I've seen plenty of guys unrealistically pulling a steady 6+ W/kg up the big climbs at warp speed, but anyone I've seen at 1.4 W/kg is crawling along.
