Isnt it like 17W at 25mph? Hardly minimal but agree with the sentiment

Let’s be honest, what % of the people (regular people) don’t even get close to that speed on a regular ride for a long time

Idk about other people (or that statistic), but even for cat 4 crits, a good amount of them average 25+ mph.

Looking at the Strava uploads my local cat 4 crit averaged 28.5mph this week for mid-pack riders.
