There is no doubt, I loved tackling Sa Calobra again. Even more so when a champ like Tom Pidcock is the rider you have to chase down at the top of the Strava Leaderboard! So much fun and very inspiring!

@edlaverack
@edlaverack 4 месяца назад
I reckon a few could beat Tom but It would be awesome to see others try :) To go sub 24 I think I just need another 2years of chipping away, or a better weather day, if we are talking about me improving my time solo. At this level it is literally seconds of improvement.

@edlaverack
@edlaverack 4 месяца назад
I didn’t need to. The answer is “of course not!”🙈But because of the speed Tom was doing up there the watts required are actually nuclear. We can make an educated guess that I’d last roughly half way (12min at 420w, 7wkg) and just about be still with Tom. But then I’d blow.

@Saladh_Olivier 4 месяца назад
quite sure you could make your bike and kit a bit more optimised for the segment, but that'd still be marginal, and probably wouldn't help to gain. Hats off to Tom he did his PB in Dec. Was or wasn't he paced up the hill I guess that's irrelevant to your personal PB. Great effort nevertheless! It's funny when one wants to hit sub-30 on that climb, another person thinks of sub-24. haha!

Just echoing what I said above - I've heard all sorts of stories from the locals on the island, but at the end of the day these guys are training to hold on to the best climbers in the world. I'd argue if it was motorpaced/team paced then it's all part of training now to match the likes of Pog/Jonas.

If getting the KOM is that important, why not drive there, warm up on a turbo and hit it totally fresh. Riding for 2.5 hrs before even getting to Sa Colabra must surely put some fatigue into body even if taking it easy.
@edlaverack
@edlaverack 4 месяца назад
If I did that I wouldn't hear the end of it haha, everyone knows that riding there and then doing it is the unwritten rule!! The KOM isn't important, what is important is the PB :) Besides, 2.5hr at Z1 is very easy, performing an effort like this for me after a few hours like that is normal.

Power meter readings from Pidcock and you make zero sense. You did 0.15 w/kg more and gained only a handful of seconds and pidcock did 0.3 more than you and gained a minute and a half?! No way. Either his power meter is way under-reading, your's is way over-reading or Pidcock was motorpaced up the climb. Even with the wind in mind, his time is INSANE for the exact same wattage between you two.

It's highly likely that the power meters read differently. I can only speak for the accuracy of mine over the years and my previous performances. Tom will be maybe 2kg lighter than me but chances are my bike is 0.5kg lighter. The time difference is massive considering the relative efforts, I can't see myself ever going that speed up that climb ever.
@ThisIsANameBruh
@ThisIsANameBruh 4 месяца назад
@@edlaverack that's the thing. If we start believing that power meters can read so completely wrong then idk man, what are we even using them for? I guess consistency is what really matters not absolute values but still... And Shimano meters have been known to exaggerate, not under-read which I assume is the case for pidcock. But difference is still too massive. I'm forced to assume he was paced
