Expected to get warn letters today. Hope that it does not apply to me.

I don't trust Strava's fitness/freshness numbers. Strava's formula for normalized (weighted average) power doesn't agree with nearly anyone else's, so the rest of the statistics are off as well. Especially if there's any zero power time (coasting). If pedaling time is 100%, then it comes close. Intervals.icu agrees well with both Training peaks numbers and the Elevate plugin numbers.
So it is

I've done a charity ride called The Lighthouse Century on the central coast. Did it 5 times and the food is outstanding. They have hot Olala berry pie at the lunch stop, along with sandwiches, salads, and hot drinks. They feed you at the end with Tri Tip, vegetarian lasagna, and more Olala berry pie.
They also had a chocolate fondue fountain at the last rest stop.

Did you enter your Strava FTP? Intervals may default to an estimate if you don't. There may also be a difference in how they compute load.

Basically companies are required to give you 60 days notice if they will furlough you.

There's the man that's sayin' what I want to hear.
I've noticed that the NP on my Wahoo is usually a little higher than what Strava indicates as a Weighted Average. I usually forget that Fitness/Freshness exists, but I have been looking at it every now and then for the last month or so. FWIW, Strava says I'm ~as fit as I've ever been.
It seems to have grabbed my indicated FTP from Strava, which is probably 5-10w low. As far as Intervals, I haven't made a point of doing any on a real ride in... forever, unless you count, "let's do this entire ride at 90%" or "I'mma hold X watts up this hill." I really should start doing some real-world intervals, but I've never figured out how to set it up on the Wahoo. *shrug*

Lolololol. So I'm looking at my power curve on intervals.icu and they're telling me that my power profile is "all-around" (code for "ha ha - you fat ****!" I assume) and my the top end is looking... low. So I do a little digging, looking for individual activities where I know that I exceeded X watts for Y seconds. And I start seeing these weird little symbols. wut. Clicking on them reveals that I exceed their expected power curve for me, based upon my FTP, by more than 20%, so they kindly "corrected" the spurious data for me.

Meanwhile, I can't find my baggie of rotor bolts. I checked in the Wheel Parts Drawer and the Brakes Drawer, and nada
Guess I need to go get some beer and clean off the workbench
