okay I'm not going to start off by questioning your data. I will direct you to the following power-profiling tables.

500W @79kg puts you around Miguel Indurain stats or virtually at the top of the international pro rating for FTP (6.40 w/kg). Johan could use you right now.

And yes it may not be as pure of a number as an SRM or similiar meter (which I currently cannot afford), but it's in the ballpark. Admittedly even if it errors on the high side by 50 watts, they're unbelievable numbers for a non-pro. But I've seen the progress, last year at this time I could barely hold my current FTP for a minute. What did I do? Followed Dave Morris's plan...

Yep, they'd call you a sandbagger in the 5's with numbers like that, but so what. You've got no choice about the category you start in and you're only sandbagging if you avoid your upgrades when you've earned the points. Being strong doesn't make you a sandbagger, being strong, consistently winning and refusing to upgrade does

Re: Poll: What's your Functional Threshold power?

Is an FTP of 500 watts possible? We are talking hour power correct?

yes Miguel Indurain was quite reliably reported in the 505-515W range at around 80kg bodymass. That was for his hour record time .. so definitely FTP :-)
