I've got a pretty good idea what my LT power is after today's workout.  I did a 15min warmup, feeling great, then did a 1hr workout aiming for 337W.  Well, after about 15 minutes, I was still feeling excellent, so I decided to push the pace.  I ended up averaging 346W average at 172bpm average for 1 hour.  I watched part of the 2009 Paris Roubaix as well.  I think that's my best 1hr power ever, so I'm feeling good going into the Gila in a week and a half.  My weight is 181lbs. (I weighed myself after the session), so my 1hr power to weight ratio is 4.21 W/kg.  Not bad.  I wish I was 10 pounds lighter, but I'm not.
