[Bike] PRE-SEASON FTP TEST

Attention fellow masochists!

We've got Sports Basement Presidio booked for a group FTP test!

This is just the opportunity you've been avoiding to go hard and set an early benchmark for this year's bike training. This is timed to get in a hard effort and still be fully recovered in time for this year's Spring Programs as well as the Napa Marathon.

Date & Time: Monday, Feb 17th from 5 PM to 7:30 PM

The plan is to run two test waves. Show up early to help set up and keep things running smoothly!

Location: The Dairy @ Sports Basement Presidio. 

Parking: The Sports Basement parking lot is under construction, so we recommend parking in the back lot (closer to the GGB). We will have a few push carts staged to help get trainers/fans/bikes inside!

• Wave 1: Setup starts at 5:15 PM, test begins 5:30PM
• Wave 2: Setup starts at 6:15PM, test begins 6:30PM

Please sign up for your wave & Carpool's using this spreadsheet!

And make sure to sign this waiver from Sports Basement

Equipment:

• BYOB (Bring Your Own Bike): You'll need to bring your bike along for the ride.
• Towel: You will get sweaty! Please bring a towel to clean up after your test.
• Trainers: Those who have a trainer, please bring it along. If you don’t have one, don't worry! We’ve got you covered. Sign up for the 2nd wave and use the sign-up spreadsheet to coordinate borrowing a trainer from somebody in the first wave.
• Fans: If you've got a fan, bring it! We'll scrounge up a few, but if you want to make sure you stay cool the best way is to bring a fan for yourself.
• Laptop: Bring one, especially if you have a Zwift Account
• Zwift Login: If you are new to this, please create an account beforehand. Note: You will be able to do the test as part of a free (20-mile) trial period, so no payment is required.

If you have any questions - feel free to reach out to anyone on the planning group: Ambassadors Nick M, Doug H, Molly B, Sara G, Tyler M, Olivia M, and V.P. Andy I.
