Last Saturday (September 27), the Women's World Championship road race took place in Varese, Italy. The race was 8 laps of a 17.35 km course for a total race distance of 138.8 kilometers. CycleOps Powered athlete Nikki Egyed rode for Australia and was extremely active throughout the race.

Firstly, a quick background on why I’ve been asked to start writing in this newsletter…..aside from being a ‘CycleOps Power’ sponsored athlete, I am a professional cyclist, and slightly embarrassingly, am very obsessed with my power data. I have worked with David Martin from Australia for almost 6 years now, and recently started to work a little with Dr. Allen Lim. Between the two I am being looked after by perhaps the most forefront sport scientists in cycling.
