You'd be better spending you money on a rolling bike fit first that jumping straight to the wind tunnel, even that needs a bit of time on the bike before you go for it.

Right now you aren't in the right shape for the bike, you need 6 months minimum on it to find what that shape is. We go on about making changes to the bike to fit the rider, but the rider is equally adaptable, it's just that chucking money at the rider doesn't change the shape. seriously, it's an impressive build, but you need to ride it, nothing you've done yet will tell if you can even ride it fast and it's all just polish on something that might not work, GET ON YOUR BIKE.

Hi Novo,

I take you seriously and view your input as top notch. These things I do understand and please don't believe any of this is a immediate plan of action. It's a obsessive learning disorder that allows me to view all options and consider in this case, cost, available facilities, and available talent for fitting, all available to me tucked away in a folder at a undetermined time in the future if needed.

To move to present day I am racking up the training miles on the Audax Club and opening up the distance traveled as I am able.

The actual time trial venue, the perimeter road at Fiesta Island is a 5-mile, one-way loop road that circles the island is available to me at any time and I plan to spend as much quality time riding laps as possible there.

As usual I am waiting on parts to complete the TT bike so in the down time I walk the dogs then I ride and ride and ride...

Everyone Thanks For Following Along: Mike

Don't take me to seriously, I'm joking about the screaming go ride it. I did my first TT (open road) on a high tensile steel road bike (that I adore) with a set of clip ons and a lot of shitty advice. It only went OK because of my stubborn attitude. Enjoy it when you get out there on it. Its a beast of a bike.

Looking back i now have more admiration for anyone who can train at race pace. I needed a competition to be able to dig deep which is partly what separates those that are good and those that are excellent.

training was always 1 RP, 1 rest, 1 long, 1 relaxed, 1 something else. Now it's Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 3.

my training now is 1 without booze, 1 with booze and 1 with a coffee break.

What we have to do in our mature years is include a lot more rest than we needed when we were younger. 1 hard ride ffollowed with 2 rest days and an easy ride with 1 test day kind of thing
