Virtual Zwift Rides

That’s what I’m thinking. I know it won’t be perfect but it’s that or nothing

If the bike has been doing nothing is it worth a bit of GT85 as well?

Could knock the trainer difficulty down to reduce gear changes.

First 3+ hours in a long time… Warm up, first group ride abandoned after 30 mins as it was full of Karen’s.
So started over on another 100k event.

Wife ticked over 5 hours to continue to put me in my place :flushed:

How effing long to update???

Started a dumb session as it’s only 1/8th finished after 5-10 minutes :roll_eyes:

EDIT: 33 minutes to update :face_with_symbols_over_mouth::triumph::face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

How long is it since you last updated? There’s been some pretty big updates in the last few weeks, so if you’re doing a bunch of those in one go I can see why it would be slow

Bloody “streaks”?

I remember about 6-7 years my son going mental because he had his phone confiscated and lost his “streak” :joy::joy::joy:

It’s only taken Zwift that long to piggy back onto a teen trend.

I just wanna ride without all the gamification nonsense.

Plenty of different apps for training like that :person_shrugging:

There is, but they’re all whack.

FulGaz is garbage.
RGZ is defunct.
TrainerRoad is incomprehensible.

Not sure of any more :person_shrugging:t3:

Belated Happy Christmas @Jorgan

Didn’t have much confidence going into Tiny races, hanging on in race 1 but timed it well.
Shouldve got 5th but did my usual of giving up with seconds to go.
Got progressively worse, tho only planned on racing 2 of the 4.

Decided I’d sit in on the flat is fast race and hopefully get a steady ride, didn’t quite go to plan though :roll_eyes:

Somehow found myself leading out with 600m to go :joy: more due to pack dynamics, wattbike lag and my incompetence though. Fell back to around 39th on ZP but picked up a few points as a lot of my previous scores have aged out.

So much for an easy night.

It took 4.3/kg just to hang on the back for me today! Flat is Fast stage 1.

Flamme Rouge Racing is my favourite series on Zwift. Yesterday was the start of the Tour of Watopia, 9 days, 8 races, 360km, 4500m climbing.

First race was the ITT, I took the win in the DRA cat, and was 17th fastest overall, and set a new 1 year FTP of 331w

I feel that I am starting 2024 with some very good cycling strength

Slogged my way through the first workout of some back to fitness set. FTP set to 235w and it had 3x5 min ramps from 200w up to FTP. Enjoyably hard but possible.
