Hey Oscar,

No problems with your grammar over here! I understand what you are saying.

Now that you've spoken to a coach, you now believe that we can hit the rpms we are hitiing?

BTW, I hit my top rpm while using a very light gear on a magtrainer. So I don't know if that counts. Lance spins at 100-110 rpm during time trials. I'm sure his top rpm is much more than that. If you check out coach Hauns' website, you'll see a guy who hit 260 rpm on rollers.

So try finding your top rpm on a low gear, then tell us what you hit.

Cheers!

Walang anuman DREPADS !

Don't forget to post how fast you can spin!

My computer doesn't have the cadence I have an HB 100 hearts monitor, and it doesn't have that cadence feature on it, so there is no way I will be able to know my cadence unless, I buy another bike computer, which I don't intend too, the odometer reading on my HB100, which I have been using for almost 3 years now is 27,000 kilometers, and the Crystals on the screen is about to give up so if that gives up I will surely buy a Bike computer w/ cadence and a separate Heart Rate Monitor.

Altwegg

Well you can count how many revolutions you make for 15 seconds, then multiply that by 4 to get your cadence. However, I think it would be very difficult to count while spinning at 160 rpms

Cheers!

Life favours the simpler solutions to complex problems......the bloody thing is broken, ok!!!

Just my simple 2 cents

orguasch

he he he he, you are indeed a very simple man Poululla, you just made my day, maybe your also from Krypton :thumbup:

willic

its power lines giving weird readings.

Just this morning i rode under a string of Pylons and my computer speed jumped from 15 mph up to 88.88 mph as i passed under .

poululla

Hey maybe you were really travelling that fast, you just did not notice.....

On a couple of occasions my computer has gone a bit wacky and recorded bizarre cadences, sometimes bouncing around. Say I'm pedalling along at 90, suddenly it might read 40 then a couple of seconds later 280, then back to 90, I think I discovered a lose wire or something.

What kind of computer are you using? I am considering something that records max and avg cadence. Mine just does real time.
Thanks,
Raymond

Hi Raymond!

My comp`r is a "Cateye Wireless 2" Quite new, the pylons I am refering to are strung out over a section of road for appro 1/2 mile and have given me a couple of crazy readings when i have ridden under them .
On a previous occasion my computer screen just blanked out completly until i had travelled the section of road refered to.
Its a rather strange phenominum as on most occasions the comp`r functions quite normally, maybe the climatic conditions are a consideration also, as a couple of hours later we had an almighty thunderstorm!.
Regards Willic.

I maxed out at 222 last night, its not impossible but your legs really are a blur.

JanMM

You've resurrected a 6.5 years dead thread. Impressive.

fietser_ivana

Which is a good thing, since I've not been active here for almost 4 years.. nor have I been cycling for the same time!!!

Started a new thread but apparently it's so blasphemic, nobody has responded to it yet.

HoldUP

What's your point? If you didn't want to read an old thread you didn't have to, I didn't force you to do it.
So stop wasting my time and yours with your immature comments.

JanMM

Now calm down, young fella. Nothing wrong with raising the dead once in a while.

JanMM

It's been responded to.
You're one of the original posters to this thread! I don't know if any of the others still hang out in BF, at least not in the forums I frequent.

TalkingHead

do you have another device like a GPS or blackberry nearby? or even a light..some lights i read can interfere with cyclo computers.

my avg rpm was 58RPM for 2 mins, i was pretty tired..these jello legs need to get stronger!

If it is wireless and your car has antilock brakes, the wheel sensors for the antilock brakes use guess what? a magnet on the wheel assembly. I once looked at my veta after a ride and everything looked normal. I checked it again when I got home, I forgot and left it on in the bike bag in the back seat, and low and behold I had gone another 200 miles.
