>>114303 Well yeah I have good long loops with no stops and maybe a right hander or two but with absolutely no cars. But otherwise I agree with Malawibert, pushing on the flat is something you get used to. For whatever reason I find it slightly easier on the TT bike compared to the normal road bike, so might be fit related. Really high power ones like 1-5min intervals are super hard on the flat though, I much prefer the raper for that (or a hill if we had one).
