Virtual Zwift Rides

What’s worse than Bologna???
2 laps of Bologna ffs

Had planned to ride at pb pace, went way over and was still out the back before halfway.

Been geeking out with Strava and streaming tho… @Daz I’ve now got the green screen :see_no_evil:

Okay, the title of this thread has been bugging me for years now.

The tautology of it.

Are there any non-Virtual Zwift rides???

So there are Zwift rides that are not virtual?

See above

Arena Games being an example

Slow day?

The Arena games takes place on Zwift.
The course is on Zwift. The riders avatar is on Zwift, the ride is virtual.

I preferred thinking you looked like Roy Schneider.

Relentless team played a blinder on FRR 10:30 race today. out of 25 Cat A’s 16 from Relentless. Out of the Pen they went at 7wkg for first 60s (felt like 5mins) to split the pack - Luckily I stayed with them. On the second sprint, only the non Relentless guys contested… I shoud have twigged, immediately after the sprint all the Relentless riders put in a massive 7wkg effort and dropped every non relentless riders. Adrien who is one of the top Zwifter in the world did manage to get back on a bit later, but I was a couple of seconds back and not strong enough to get on his wheel.

I think that I will avoid that 10:30 slot. It really shows what an organised team can do, I assume that they were all talking on Discord

Had a crack at stage 2.
Spicy early doors. Half the pack dropped early, plenty of people dumping power ups without having read the race format.
3km to go and… zwift crashes.

Every time I try and use the frikking play controllers in a non pacer ride (well I wasnt even using them as zwift had disabled steering ffs) it crashes out.
Dead useful having log files with no info.

What do you run Zwift on? My Play Controllers are pretty solid with a Macbook Pro but my partner has no end of problems with a Windows laptop and has basically given up on them

Yeah dedicated win10 PC.
Everything seemed much better paired via companion app. But its far too much coincidence for all these crashes.

Second attempt to do the epic ride after PC issues yesterday.

Delighted I picked a time slot that had 2 teams doing intervals off the front to get other team mates a good GC time.

Pace never relented. Finished 2:00:30 :hushed:

Still had nearly 40 coming out the jungle… Every little kick after that seemed to lose one or 2.

Not much left at finish. 10th in the end

Anyone else having recurring connection problems using appleTV? I think I’m on about the third zwift app reinstall in about 4 or 5 weeks. It just constantly forgets the connection with the bike and nothing I do seems to reconnect it. Then I have to uninstall and reinstall the app and reconnect everything the.
