I managed ADZ under an hour immediately after that too :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Completing the ZA ROAD academy nets you the Canyon Aeroad Bike AND the fancy paint scheme :smiling_face_with_three_hearts::smiling_face_with_three_hearts::smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I’ve bought the DT Swiss wheels, so now have a racing rig until Level 35 (as the next bike only saves 1s!)

Unless of course you get the Tron :wink:

Which won’t take long at your new race weight :rofl:

Literally a piece of pie!!!
I might put it at 50kg for my next one and just keep riding up ADZ at 250W.

Stick Emily’s Short Mix on and get on the TT bike and watch those XP come rolling in

How else do you think people get the Tron bike?

@Poet - bloody ride leader dropped again!! 2.7 for christ sake!

Well I got mine the hard way (well more or less)… but after @Jgavs revelation of the Ant simulator - you don’t even need to get on your bike!!

You could even pretend your doing speed tests on kit to justify racking up stupid mileage (and thus xp and drops) rather than just downright cheating the system (still… only a game innit :rofl:)

Yeah - it’s 2.2-2.7 :see_no_evil:
They tend to tell you when it’s 2.5.
You do 2.7 at the end.

Just put your weight up if it’s too easy :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Large group off the front :see_no_evil: the leader is pretty chill though. The Kom is taking victims :joy:

I can’t speak for others but in my case, not lying about my weight and working my fucking nuts off. :wink:

Soz pal :see_no_evil:

I had to get back to work for 2pm and realised it’d be tight…,so “wondered” if you could change your weight “in motion”

Turns out that you can.
Now I know that, I might not be able to forget it :rofl::see_no_evil::rage:

Yeah whilst I may have cheated about 2-3000 metres… I did also suffer about 8000 metres of noob tax when I started… so I ride my Tron guilt free :grin:

I’ve climbed 22km on Zwift, but only 8km for the Tron :rofl:

Make sure you change it back. You may do a race on this new weight and suddenly find you get put in a higher category eh @ChrisD :rofl:

Oh you’ve paid your Tron tax for sure!

Is this still the plan? We aren’t winding it up in the pen/turbo?

I think so - otherwise if it goes like last week, 2 or 3 people could have a very sh1t experience. I’ll try and add suitable messaging to the screen.
See how it goes - if its bad we won’t do it again.

What is ‘noob tax’? Is that where you didn’t realise that you had to do the Everest challenge? If that’s the case. I did 67000 mtrs of noob tax. (still managed to not invent my weight though :laughing:)

Ouch!! Yeah you have the moral highground on all of us here :grin:

If only the moral highground elevation metres counted towards the Tron eh :rofl:
