Lets remember Horner's data from 2010 on the SRM site. Here it mentions a few different power efforts, if you divide watts by w/kg. 1) 380w / 5.9w/kg = 64.4kg 2) 352 w / 5.5w/kg = 64kg 3) 355w / 5.6w/kg = 63.4kg 4) 356w / 5.6w/kg = 63.6kg ......and here's a pic of him, looking fit &...

Does this qualify as 'ironic', ie. Gazzetta questioning Horner's data when they've just 'estimated' his wattage, his weight & hence his w/kg LOL His VAM is going to be high because of the gradient but from this to estimate the watts & w/kg is very..............amateur. Actually they have the...

I'll agree with what some posters are saying, ie. that if you don't know the weight & you don't know the wattage, then the w/kg that's 'estimated' is telling us nothing/nada/zilch ! It's absolutely pointless & :o As regards this years Vuelta and it's climbs, MTF's, steep gradients, the...

OK maybe I'm not understanding the 'w/kg' thingy, but thanks for shouting Le breton, appreciate that ;) Using this site, http://2peak.com/tools/map.php, it lets you enter a climb and your weight and your speed etc and then calculates your w/kg. So it produces the following: Climb : 2km @ 6%...

From the above we get: Stage 8: Puerto de Peñas Blancas (last 8.85 km, 7.20 %, 637 m) Leopold König ---- CZE / NetAPP-Endura | 22:40, 23.43 Kph, VAM 1686 m/h, 6.20 W/kg Daniel Moreno ---- ESP / Katusha ----- | 22:41, 23.41 Kph, VAM 1685 m/h, 6.20 W/kg Nicolas Roche ---- IRL /...
