Never the less, you get a fairly accurate picture of power output with weight, frontal area (including estimated drag factor) and time over distance. The accuracy of this rivals a power meter.
As I pointed out, there really is no use for a power meter on a sports bike other than to brag about your power output.
And as you've shown us, it's even easier to brag about your power output
if you don't have a power meter.
400 W over 10 km from a guy older than 70? At _least_ enter the Senior
Olympics so we can see your name in the record books. According to
http://bikecalculator.com/how.html your claimed power output would
easily yield a new world record.
Go for it, Tom!

I see. Some old goat cycles 14.01 miles in one hour and you are trying
to equate it to "400 W over 10 km from a guy older than 70"?
Or are you bragging that your power output is more than a guy that is
105 years old?
Or is it simply that you don't know what you are talking about?
