First, let me say that a couple of nights ago ol' Bartman came to visit and I put him on my computrainer. If you've got one, check out the course "Madeira World Championships" - it's got 3 climbs at 15%. It's a killer. Bart called my voice mail the next day and left a message "you owe me a night's sleep!" hahahaha
Anyway, this morning I dragged myself out of bed at 9am (after last night's 4am cooking fiasco, that was pretty early.) and headed down to get a computrainer work-out in. I chose a course I've done before, not particularly hard, and only 24.5km long, but I wanted to hammer it.
I haven't been on the computrainer for awhile - or any bike, for that matter. So, I really wasn't expecting to post up any great numbers. At the end of the ride I felt like I'd worked hard, but my average wattage was 22watts lower than my best time, my HR was a little higher, but my time was 6 seconds faster than my previous best! Yup, wheelsucking that little silver computer dude allowed me to be in worse shape and set a new PR....
Tammy would have been so proud!! I'm learnin'...

I am proud! But I must say that even I have never stooped to wheelsucking a computer. It's the real deal - or nothing at all.
Uh, Rob.
You need to turn the 'drafting' function OFF and use the silver guy as a pace setter, NOT a draft source.
Tsk, tsk.
