  1. Hi,

    I am pretty new to cycling, this is my first year of training, raced this year, some decent results, moved from cat 5 to 3, fitness is not great...but top end power is. Recently got a power meter, love it, and my 30 second power fresh is around 1200 average and 40-45 around 1000+. I haven't done too many tests yet, and will know more as I use it more, but I think it is an amazing tool.

    Anyways, I was wondering if anyone had some pro power charts of sprinters finishing 30sec to 1 minute wattages. I hope to get average 1400 watts for 30 seconds by next year...which seems high, but I would like to compare it to actual top pros. I didn't make this forum to brag, I simply wish to find out if any of you know any cool websites that show finishing wattages, from 5 seconds, to 30sec, to 1 min, to 5 min, and other such things...
    I'd appreciate any sites, as I am interested to see.

    So, does anyone have charts?

  2. I did a quick google of Power charts for Tour de france and got tons of good results. For instance.

    Stage Results 1 Mark Cavendish (GBr) HTC-Highroad 4:20:24
    2 Tyler Farrar (USA) Team Garmin-Cervelo
    3 Alessandro Petacchi (Ita) Lampre - ISD
    56 Juan Antonio Flecha Giannoni (Spa) Sky Procycling
    Juan Antonio Flecha's SRM Data Total Time = 4:20
    TSS = 204
    Average Power = 219 Watts
    Avg Normalized Power* = 288
    Avg HR = 113bpm
    Max HR = 159bpm
    Mean Maximal 1-minute power = 516w
    Max Maximal 5-minute power = 387w
    Mean Maximal 20-minute power = 345w
    Avg Cadence = 81 rpm
    Avg Speed = 27 mph

  3. I have a very hard time believing your 30 second power is 1200+ watts
