A classic scenario for time trial pacing strategies is to consider how to ride a race course that has a headwind for the first half followed by an equal tailwind for the second half of the course. This is a useful scenario to analyze to become better at pacing cycling time trials because it often occurs for out and back race courses. By using Optimal Cycling, we can systematically analyze the difference between riding such scenarios using a steady pacing strategy compared to the optimized strategy that the program solves …

This is a page containing additional plots for the article Time Trial Pacing Strategy for a 40km TT with Headwind & Tailwind. It contains the optimized power plots for a racer that outputs 300 watts and 350 watts.
