Why ride it
Blocks at 88 to 92% of FTP. Time-efficient work that lifts FTP and muscular endurance, so your all-day pace becomes a smaller fraction of your ceiling.
At 1 h 33 min, treat this as fueling practice too: eat and drink on a schedule from the first hour, using what you plan to carry on the day. MeepMeep prompts you for carbs, fluid and sodium and tracks what you eat against your target.
