I don’t see the link specifically between cycling and deaths

Assuming you have a road bike, you need a pump that can get up to 90 or 100 psi.
That's a challenge.

People just make stuff up about the lurgy to suit their own peculiar (in every sense) agendas. They project their own belief systems and prejudices onto some poor little piece of RNA which really doesn't give a **** one way or another.

Sorry but you are showing up your lack of knowledge now. I do have a road bike and I can comfortably cycle home on 70-80psi which my hand pump will do.

Current power is all that matters in time trialing. Put it on 190 next time and don’t let it move ;-)
Uphill, downhill, scenic, all doesn’t matter. Just hammer YOUR number.
It can be the most boring but painful form of cycling!
I do that with running at the moment. Not as accurate as cycling but I try hitting a pace with no exception.

Ah you see, most of my running is HR based training, i ignore pace! especially for the longer economy runs. So I will stay in zone2 (139-148BPM) for 90 minutes for example.
The problem I had with the TT was going off too hard, I think I probably averaged almost 220w for the first ten minutes! Then the last ten would have been down at 150-160, hence the average. You are right, I need to try and stay consistent, will go for 190!

It is based on the fact that it is like carnos circus on my door step. If I lived out in the sticks the chances are I won’t see anyone but as it happens it’s a town where everyone is walking and cycling in the same parks and trails.

Done,
Only D and E category? Whats the difference as both were the same watts and both the same distance?
Joined the E cat and got 19.06 as a start

Oh. I guess the two I have in my pack, one that goes up to 160psi and another that goes up to 300psi for my air suspension both must be faulty then.

My god you cyclists are touchy.
Anyone exercising For 20 miles, in my opinion, is not doing what we have been told which is stay home.
That can be walking, running or cycling. It just so happens a cyclist stated they travel 20 miles for exercise on this thread.
In terms of deaths our neighbours Ireland placed an exercise restriction of 2km because they thought it would help stop the spread of the virus. That is the entire population of a country for 7 weeks. Their scientists and politicians believe it was the right thing to stop the spread and in turn help keep the deaths under control.
My own experience of exercising during lockdown is that their are far too many people out and far too many people many miles from where they live. I would say both go against the stay at home messaging.
