s14phoenix Posted February 23, 2017 Share You also have to remember since most trainers cannot simulate downhills you tend to be pedalling more of the time on an online route than the real equivalent. That said... if you are on an IDT why would you want to go downhill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Hubs Posted February 24, 2017 Share Haven't done a route in a while...did "Section_One_Strade_Bianche_Gran_Fondo_www_lacorsa_cc" last night. Seems all innocent with a kick at the end... really struggled to hold above 30km/h...sweated like crazy ! Solid hour workout! IDT definitely harder! good training!!

Grey Hubs Posted March 16, 2017 Share Anyone still do any races/rides? Just got myself a trainer and trying to decide whether to join cycleops virtual training.Haven't seen a race posted in a long while...I enjoy VT just for the routes and "Free Ride"!A few awesome pain cave training workouts as well!Some believe its too expensive. I enjoy the platform. TALUS and SwissVan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s14phoenix Posted March 16, 2017 Share I still use it daily - no races but enjoy the routes and workouts. I did a few of the races from international users during their winter and I am sure there will be more use this winter also. We can start scheduling a weekly race again.
