De routes are supposed to be rolling out from today and on ToW next week. Longest is 48k
The fast demo on DCR looks decent

Just done the 42k out and back (purely for 3*xp)
Roads are so boring with no one on.
Hit level 59 tho… One to go. When I got to 49, they immediately announced 51-60

Have you hacked it or just nobody else around seeing them yet?
Also, triple XP

Got the update this morning. Just not many people I assume have it yet.
Picked one of the tour routes.
So double xp for that.
Then get new route completion.
So about 2000xp for 70 mins

I’ll try and get a few in a draft fest next week

Tried my first race for a few weeks earlier on the ToW Volcano race, almost gave up on the first lap but got back in and hung around until the end with a feather.
1K to go and I was near the front as we hit the small climb, played my feather and then the bloody thing dropped out about 3 times 
2 reconnected quickly, but the first definitely lost some pack draft.
Was never going to challenge but fell back and didn’t really bother much after that.

Ticked off the short new route, the new section looked alright.
TOW has 3 routes on this week so should be some decent packs and opportunities for double XP, will probably try and find time to tick them all off.
Might save a couple of the others in case I need a longer session over winter as the Alpe one could take at least 2 hours?

The big ring route looks good. Well, apart from half a lap of the jungle. I did one of the shorter routes yesterday. Nice having something else to look at

I did some of the new Roads the other day - lots of weird blue and orange bits on the floor around the ruins and temples looked odd to me - sort of like they were a glitch!
Could just be because I’m running on Apple TV on a very old LCD TV so not the best graphical experience available

Been alright for me so far but I’m using a fairly new iPad.
Bonus week on ToW so I’ll be all out for more XP, about halfway through level 43.
Haven’t raced properly on it for a while though.
I levelled up to level 57 yesterday.
I’ve been ripping the arse out of the ToW. I’ve only got one of the new routes to do on triple XPs now.
30,000 XPs per level is slow going without a bit of assistance

My attempt to take my race streams to the next level have gone up a notch. Pulling in a 2nd “view” - so either a 2nd racer or more likely a rear camera (these are different riders whilst I was messing).
Half a level away from “finishing” zwift so need something to occupy myself

Neokyo City races are improving my ranking again; even racing B. Scored 131 earlier. They are all really just hang-on for the bunch sprint; but I’ve taken a flyer at 1.5-1k to go and it’s generally paid every time as I finish top 10, with 3rd today.

You beat me in a race last week

Tried one myself, unpleasant! Think I came in about 19th, doubt it’s worthy of any points but it’s about the first time I’ve raced for a few weeks.

You need to make sure you’re near the front with 2km to go; people will start surging off the front, and you need to get on their wheels and launch from around 1.5k out in my experience. Far enough out for them to let a few people go, and too late for most of them to catch you when they realise their error and string out with <1k to go. Of course all the races pan out slightly differently.

I wasn’t far off the front but got caught out a bit on 2 corners, then the aero helmet didn’t last as long as I expected.
Kept going but my legs were just about done, it was a lot harder than I’ve done recently.

This week’s has another PU in the closing stages iirc.
