matjefreddy zwift event highlights

during their gay ass couples ride they answered some questions from chat ^_^ first of all. im scared

did we know that????? ALSO everyone in the ride was laughing abt this and mathieu didnt even say anything to defend himself 😭 😭 😭

LIKE 😭 GIRL STAND UP. anyway

very [clenches fist]. more under the cut

Start of the ride:

mullet adds 20w... not everything is about science you know!

+ had to include this one just for the smile 😭

people were also CONSTANTLYYYY talking about freddy's dad 😭😭 how are you the third most important guy in your own two-person zwift

had to defend himself 😭😭

buuut i think he doesn't mind all the attn on matje c:

+ setting realistic goals LMFAO

watopia chat.. seems like freddy may not be enjoying belgium much lolol

very true wisdom

other random q&as - freddy's fave pizza is pepperoni and he had waffles for breakfast... no comment on matjes breakfast. somebody also asked freddy if he needs a new skinsuit every race since his custom one is white and he said yes LOL

most of the questions were for matje but they were a bit boring as one might expect 😭 he said he wants to do mtb next year, gravel worlds will be his last race until cx but they haven't started any cross planning yet. he also said that the gravel course is "nice" based on his recon and he has a custom grail for it

there he is ...

anyway that's about it 😭 it may be cringe to not even DO the actual zwift and just watch the replay but what can i say. their little back and forth negging is so married couple it makes me ill

Ride time

50km

Három hét kihagyás után mivel is lehetne letesztelni, hogy még élek-e. Gondoltam, nem satnyultam még el annyira, hogy ne bírjak lenyomni egy ötvenest. De sikerült? Igen. A tervezett időn belül? Igen.

I’m still bike training 5-6 hours a week to get ready for my cross Pyrenees trip this August. I hired a coach and he creates bike workouts that are downloaded to Zwift. I ride my Kickr trainer in Erg mode and Zwift and the Kickr automatically change the resistance to match the workout.

I am in a “build” phase of this month’s training and the workouts are very, very challenging. I can only sustain a few minutes above 160 beats per minute and 171 is as high as I can go. My Garmin watch was not impressed this morning.

Zwift tries to make the inherently boring experience of riding a bike trainer a little more exciting. You can chat with other riders, give kudos and even go on group rides (none of which I have any interest in doing). They also reward time in the app by advancing riders to higher and levels based on miles ridden. At each level you get points which can spend to get flashier wheels, or a special jersey or helmet. As you can see in the pic I just earned some special bike gloves. This is entirely wasted on me. I’ve never ridden by another biker, noticed his jersey and realized or cared what level the rider has achieved.

Despite the Garmin’s advice to chill on the couch, we XC skied for an hour with my niece and her SO. It is pretty warm and the tracks haven’t been groomed but it was fun nonetheless.

Have you found a peloton to ride with, in your new homestead?

The only ride is on Thursday evening. So, no. I ride with Zwift on a trainer in my garage. Turns out, just because I live in the mountains my dislike for climbing didn’t go away.

The weather is not inviting for riding outside yet... Cold and wet, with ice on the road here and there. I am training on Zwift lately, I am halfway through the "road to the sky" challenge for February.

Getting slowly better at pacing myself on the climbs and managing my gear shifts. Unfortunately I still need to get my nutrition strategy right... I didn't have any carb-intensive snacks today so I almost bonked and the last 15 KMS were quite the challenge. I need to have some emergency candy or some gels at hand to get out of the carb slump. Hydration worked well however, i had at least one liter of water (sweating a lot because indoors there's no air to cool me down) with some magnesium and salts tablets. Feeling sore but not cramped.

If you'd like to, pm for adding me on Zwift!

Weekly Update

Hello, you know it is winter because I’m back on my Stardew Valley bullshit AND I went on my first Zwift ride since last winter today. I hate Zwift so so so much, but it’s still the best thing out there for what I want :/ (Also we are apparently due snow this week?? I finally broke down/gave into a whim and bought very fancy mukluk-style winter boots, and I’m SO excited for them to come. And also fingers crossed we get enough snow at some point that I can go snowshoeing just in the trails around my apartment.)

Anyway, I ought to make a dent in the mending pile and do various other chores and such, but first this. I’ll give a hard workout one thing; it is wonderfully easy to truly rest and relax this afternoon.

Reading

I literally just finished Our Country Friends, which is a Russian novel and a pandemic novel and strange and hypnotic and I’m very glad I read it. I quite liked Gary Shteyngart anyway (I retain some East Coast cred by being a devoted New Yorker subscriber although NO I did not read that one article about his schween, I have Limits), and I’m pleased to love him in novel-length too.

(Just be advised that this VERY CLEARLY and DEFINITIVELY a pandemic novel, set in the summer of 2020, although tbh it did not give me the flashbacks I get form other things that bring back that time?)

I also read The Girl from the Sea, which someone recommended to me ages ago, and I loved it! It is a very sweet, lovely YA love story, that has a HEA, but not the one you’d expect. (If anyone has fanfic recs set after the end of the story, that would be awesome!)

Also I just really, really love how Keltie is drawn <3

Square, le smartbike d'Elite

Elite propose aussi sa solution pour ne pas utiliser son vélo sur son smart-trainer. C’est le Square, un châssis “carré” qui s’adapte aux spécifications du cycliste, de sa machine et des plateformes d’entraînement. Et si l’avenir du home-trainer passait par les “cadres” qui les transforment en smart-bike ? Cette tendance initiée avec le Zwift Ride se poursuit donc avec le Square d’Elite. On est…

Monday, October 7, 2024 - Riding

Ahhhh yes, the start of the week. I already want this week to be over. I started today with a good run actually, it was the farthest I've ever ran. According to strava at least. I got my bag together, rode on over to school & we officially started Sum of the Parts. OH boy. We had a double session/double iRat day, but Dr. Dial gave us the rats for free today (thank god). I actually didn't do too bad on them, but the APEXs really hurt my brain. It's gonna be tricky putting all the pieces together. It was just a long day, and I totally got home and took a nappy. I didn't sign on for a VBMA club meeting & didn't realize that I signed up for a LVMA club meeting, so I missed them both! I felt pretty bad, but it's all good. I biked a good 37 miles on zwift, ate some dinner, reviewed tomorrow's Clin Log notes, and derped around. I'm just gonna have to keep grooving along. I'm really enjoying the little 99 cent greek yogurts from Trader Joe's. Natey wants to see a movie this weekend and go to the pumpkin patch this month. I'm slightly confused where we stand but I'm just gonna keep going with it. Everyone (Cooper and Ashley) keep asking me what's going on and I have no clue. But that's ok for now!

Team Time Trial National Championships 2024

With only 4 weeks passing since the ITT, it wasn’t too challenging to retain some of my TT form.

A couple of weeks of training and a few Zwift Volcanos and I felt good.

Keiichi and myself did the Seniors Duo this year. We initially trained for2 laps but found out just before that we were only doing1 hot lap. Keiichi didn’t have his TT bike so we were a bit limited on aero marginal gains.

I got there with an hour to go and managed a decent warmup in the blazing heat. Keiichi got stuck in traffic due the yellow ribbon run and only arrived 20 minutes before we started. The prep turned into a mad dash and he got literally zero warmup before we hit the start.

We aimed for a 46 average and managed to maintain this rolling speed despite an oscillating headwind on the way out. Our biggest competition were Integrated Riding and we could see that we were catching them at halfway. We were both slightly cooked on the return leg but still managed to raise the pace. 1 lap is too short to hit max heart rate but I got to 176 which is pretty high!

Practise had been a 90/10 work split between the two of us. Was really pleased to get more help on this run and it was more like 70/30 in reality.

We finished first - 20 seconds up on second place. Super happy with the run with a 45.4K. speed for the lap.

The Quad team were on track for a record time but thwarted by Francois dropping his chain midway. After losing time in the dismount and fix, the boys were sadly only able to grab3rd on the podium.

A super hot day out but rewarding. Looking forward to getting back onto some normal training ahead of Batam.
