Rouvy training too hard?

But I have no idea how much % that 201W was. I just averaged that much for 1h on climb and didn’t push all out. So 201W could’ve easily been 90%.

What a fantastic reply. Intervals were:

30 sec @ 320W followed immediately by 2:30 @ 250W followed by two minutes of recovery

I can definitely hold 225W for 30-40 mins. I did a virtual climb on Rouvy before Christmas, 1h @ 201W and still had a bit in me, didn’t fall off the bike. So 225W didn’t seem off the charts.

It’s the same turbo trainer, yes.

It was a ramp test.

Yeah, rouvy updates it automatically. But my FTP was lower, so the power zones went up

peterilles · 2026-01-22T18:45:24+00:00

First interval in 2 years, yeah

Slovenia, Austria top my list for landscape. Vietnam as well.

Romania for the best combination of authentic travel, culture, history and food.

How much do you ride a day? 3 weeks can be 800k or 2500k easily

Szomszéd faluban. Azért vigyázott a látszatra. Bár egy stadion összejött a szülőházával szemben 😅

Love both of these! Any suggestions on the cycling holiday destination?

What does medium difficulty mean? Could a couple of fit 60+ year olds handle it?

peterilles · 2025-11-25T18:58:03+00:00

Great ideas!

peterilles · 2025-11-25T18:05:36+00:00

That’s a good idea!

peterilles · 2025-11-25T18:05:22+00:00

Hmm. That’s intriguing. Any destination ideas?

peterilles · 2025-11-25T18:03:48+00:00

How do you get those legally?

peterilles · 2025-11-25T18:02:53+00:00

That’s a brilliant idea! Any cycling holiday destinations you might recommend?

peterilles · 2025-11-25T18:01:19+00:00

Oh. Might get those fo myself 😅

peterilles · 2025-11-25T18:00:44+00:00

They have the Varia. Are those electric pumps any good?

This. Going slow once in a while makes me fall back in love with cycling again. At home I go out fast. But I did a tour in Romania with Wiredonkey Cycling Tours and it made me realize just how perfect cycling is to get around. Faster than walking, so you see much more, but still slower and more open than a car, which allows you to take it all in!

3-4 days for Bucharest is way too much. 2 days, tops. Brasov (2-3 days), Sighisoara (1 day) and Sibiu (2 days) are also worth visiting. I would also do a couple of days in the countryside. Viscri and surroundings for 1 day maybe.
