I'm pretty sure most of that image is illegible, even if you enlarge it in a new window - apologies. Finally got a new computer with higher resolution, which is great for productivity, though screenshots are an unanticipated casualty.
Anyway, what the file shows is this:
- 26.09 miles
- 25.2 mph average
- 1:02:12 total race time
- 236 watts average
- 955 watt peak
- 301 watts NP (not from file, but I remembered to look at the iAero at the end of the race)
- 1282 total feet of climbing
- Beginning after the first corner up until the crash at 1.5 laps to go, my lowest speed was 18.1 mph. Highest was 33.2 mph.
The average power (236) doesn't sound that high, but NP of 301 is a pretty serious effort for a guy like me. I looked through the power chart and counted 94 jumps above 500 watts. The spike at about 50 minutes was me jumping for a preme with 8 to go. I hit it hard (seated) from about 6th wheel beginning half way through turn 6, gunned it around 7 and up the hill to turn 8. I was closing fast on the moto ref and had to yell at him that I was on his inside on turn 8, where I slipped by. I beat the moto to the line by about 10 yards, and had another 30 on the field. The field caught me going into turn 5, and I drifted back into the pocket to recover for the end. But the crash with 1.5 to go on turn 5 opened a gap of about 50 meters (and at least 6-8 mph), and that right there was the bike race.
Awesome course if you like corners, which I do. I made up lots of positions just by holding my speed and rolling past guys riding their brakes coming into the curves.
I posted mine on my blog. My average power was 274 and my np was 328. 944 watt peak and that was just moving towards the front of the pack. I weigh 20 pounds more than you.

22 pounds. I'm down to race weight now.
