Wattbike Sessions at Lutterworth

Week 5 - 17th February 2015

Race Report

Each week the intervals get longer and the rests shorter, and this week was no exception with 3 minutes at tempo followed immediately by 7 minutes in Z4 to start the bulk of the session. This made for interesting racing as legs were tired and it was a battle of recovery and wills. Riders were split, with some digging deep and actually improving on their times from the same distance two weeks ago whilst most were unable to match their previous times after the intense session. It was telling for Simon Hall who for the first time takes the win, digging really deep to take an impressive 4 seconds off his previous best and pushing Dave Elliott into second. Dave was just 0.4 seconds behind Simon but 4 seconds slower than his last time out.
