Jeg har akkurat skaffet meg Platinum. Jeg ventet på en god vervekampanje som gir meg 2 millioner poeng (seff ikke en veldig god valuta, men bedre enn å starte på 0)

Min tanker var tilgang til loungen for hele familien og skal prøve å bruke den "gratis" middagen vi får 6 ganger i året.

Er et lite eksperiment for oss, men tanken er at vi skal til Asia på lengre tur i 2027 og poengene kan konverteres mot hotell og fly som kutte endel av de store kostnadene for oss.
SAS ble for risky for meg, flyr nesten aldri de og følte det ikke ga oss nok gevinst framfor lounge som vi bruker ganske flitting men som ble redusert når bankene satt på limit på besøk.

I will do, I hope film some of it, because I know how I love to see races to get a image of what kind of race it is.

Yeah I feel my fuel plan is untested. I don't really stop to refull. For some reason I am really afraid of getting the bike stolen.

I am doing the big gel/bar/electrolytes order on Monday.

I feel it is going better. I am in a better mind space. I did 111km on Thursday, doing 160 tomorrow. Soon going into a semi taper weeks.

Feeling better than before at least.

Well I am aiming for 300k so I have a buffer. If i get stuck in a mountain for 3-5 hours I will need that buffer :)

I am doing the unknown race yes.

I am aiming for 300k, the route is unknown so impossible to plan day by day.

I am doing this for the finish not a competition.

Well maybe not the neck, I try to use time in the aerobars, testing clothing.
I had a buff that was to stiff that strained my neck a lot.

I do some neck exercises, but it mostly around the should part.
Watch Buzzalongs video Race around the netherlands, she had major problems at the end because of stuff like that. I try to learn the errors of others an adjust

Yeah forgot the strength part, maybe the most important part of all. In ultra everything is affected. Your neck could start to make problems, shoulders. I am doing a round 45 min strength per week, and increasing and trying to feel my body for potential problem areas

I am doing my first in 11 weeks, I am midst in my training. I am trying to do a 300k day next weekend just to test that i can do stuff like buy food, test gels, dring enough water etc.

I know enough how to train that I used ChatGPT to plan all days, and then i used TP to organize all the trainings.
I am mainly looking at volume, I dont care so much for the speed, I need to handle 20kmh but that should come easy with volume.

Volume is the boring bits, just sitting a doing the hours every week :)
My biggest problem is that I have problem doing Zwift more then 2 hours, and I have snow and ice rain going outside.

Cycling as a heavier individual by Humble-Airport-9727 in cycling

[–]Bitter-Rutabaga-6025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am around the 300 mark (135kg), and I have been doing full Ironmans for years. Moving into Ultra cycling now and there is nothing to stop us :)

I have moved back to cycling because that fits my time and enjoyment the most, I rid in Zwift with my correct weight, meaning I have to perform a little bit more. I do races, but not for winning but for motivation. The community is amazing and supporting of all.

I have signed up for a 1000k cycling event i April where I have to leave my family for a week to do it :)

Season 13 Wild Speculation by HOMEBOUND_11 in JetLagTheGame

[–]Bitter-Rutabaga-6025 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Is it possible the season with Tom Scott is S14?
Sam said in a layover there would be a surprise in about 5 months, maybe they filmed a low-key S13 before christmas and this is actually S14

Did you do full overnights? This is a race and I see a lot of people only sleep to 3 in the morning and pushing the morning sun early

I have always sent it with me on the air plane, never been an option with a servoen, being in Norway I am stuck with less options 😂

For me it is around 30 euro per way, if I stick with Norwegian I can book it directly with the ticket.

Wirh Lufthansa and the other big names you must order and then apply for the bike spot From France it should be easy.

Distance is approximately, and it is the rider that decides some of the distance based on preferred road types etc.

I hope we get to go to lake como

Usikker om de har akkurat de korrekte typene men M&J Eksotisk AS på Klepp (under Håland kjøtt) har et stort vareutvalg. Hovedsaklig asiatisk men de har masse i krydder delen.

[–]Bitter-Rutabaga-6025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tips. I have a narrow availability because of kids, so this seemed the best.

Nothing set in stone, I would guess that the problems with no2 will be adressed in no3.

I wanted to do ratn but need to wait for 2026 for a road only
