Yup I'm in too for Rest of the World... Just love you on the other team are all pounds, feet and stuff yet you all know exactly your current w/kg I bet....
I realize I'm way late in finding this... I think this stared just before IMFL and I was pretty detached from the forum at that point... in any event, I'm IN! Will add myself to the spreadsheet now... I'll be new to power (will be delivered any day now) come Jan OS, so this will be extra incentive to learn it, test well, and test often! What's the metric system? I guess that means I'm part of team USA!
And since I'm not a beer person, I'll add a good bottle of straight from the US of A vino (perhaps a CA chard or an OR pinot) to the pot.
And, FWIW, if it's still open for debate, I like Matt S's idea re percentage... not that I weigh 95lbs soaking wet, but I'm not exactly a huge person (height or mass) so I doubt my numbers will be huge.
18.5% gain for Team USA! And just to pre-empt, no sand-bagging here... just the "newbie edge" ... first FTP test I literally couldn't get the last half of the 2nd 20' done in the aerobars I was so spent... figured out a few things since then...

Art – Wow big double digit gain!! Team USA will take it.
Nice learning on how to get the test done. The intervals with the new levels will be fun!!!

Can't let this one pass ... I'm IN! Just logged my data into the spreadsheet.
Up for grabs: I'll bring a case of Belle Geuele and Moosehead to IMLP.
Good to have you on board, Alessandro!
Just off the bike and added my jump from 164 to 189 (25W jump = 15.24%).
Uhhh.....just might skip the run today.
Bring on the great numbers peeps!
Another gain for me and the rest of the world, 273W to 294W! Better yet, I'm down almost a kilo. Pushing the 4.2 W/kg range now!
@ George: Way to go! Awesome gains!
