      Probably something like this. Maya was speaking full sentences quite easily for a lot of that. From RPE we know that she was probably only riding at at about 80-85% of her FTP. Bear in mind. FTP is the maximum power one can hold for an hour, and a 6km climb at 5% isn't going to take anywhere near that long. It's a very short climb for a road cyclist. Even with a low anaerobic capacity she could probably have gone about 30% harder than she was for the entire climb.
      Back to normal now. This race looked really fun!

    It's been just under 25 years ago, but I was a fanatical cyclist and triathlete. Cyclists are far superior than triathletes. From the level of technical knowledge to levels of fitness. Doing a triathlon was basically like going for a picnic, it took less than year to get fit and people could get into competition after just a few months. In cycling you need about 4 years of training and racing to be doing ok at the time trials.
    I can strongly recommend doing RTTC time trials, they are really hard.

    • @martijnvreys2910
      @martijnvreys2910 5 років тому +2

      You're comparing completing with competing, 25 years ago when triathlon had been a sport for only 15 years. Totally different thing, especially nowadays. Do you think it takes less than 4 years now to be competitive in half and full distance events? Think again. The better amateurs still push over 40km/h average over 90km to run a 1:20 half marathon after. I'm not saying cyclists aren't superior to triathletes, but your "analysis" is flawed and does not stand the test of time.

      @@martijnvreys2910 as I wrote my experience was a long time ago. However once my brother came to watch one of my races and he was laughing his head off at the lack basic bike handling skills.
      (My brothers pb for the 50 mile TT was 1:52:40 so he knows a bit about cycling.) He saw two triathletes wearing their helmets backwards and witnessed a crash in this non-drafting event that was on a closed motor racing circuit.
      What my brother found so funny about the crash is that when he races in crits or road racing they cycle so close it's normal to overlap wheels and handlebars. But in this duathlon the rules stated how many meters separation is required, and still they crashed into each other with meters of separation and on obstacles.

    • @martijnvreys2910
      @martijnvreys2910 5 років тому +1

      Matthew Baynham Oh absolutely, triathletes are lousy bike handlers (myself included). Less overall time on the bike (because of running and swimming), rarely experience racing in pelotons, often started at a later age, and I think more training hours in solitude or indoors. But in fairness you should then also compare the average cyclist’s running, swimming or overall athletic ability. Then you have a different story.

    • @jonathanzappala
      @jonathanzappala 5 років тому +1

      That’s kind of stupid. You make it sound like nobody ever crashes in a crit because they are cyclists. Emma Pooley had a pretty good career as a runner turned cyclist. It only took Roglic 3 years to make the world tour. Lance Armstrong and Emma were triathletes turned world championship, let’s talk when a cyclist is a triathlon world champion.
