Venge and disc for me 90% of the time, I like the visual feedback of when you’re in the draft, which you don’t get with the Tron. I only use the Tron on hilly courses

I would go with the Venge+disc for flat and bumpy courses. It’s more about drafting skills most of the time, but with the venge you know if you want to make a break in to the wind on at attack you get a bit more over the tron.

I’ll also think about the race I’m in and the course. If it has decent climbs, high standard of racers, key climb eg at the finish, then I would go with a tron.

Well that was every bit as much fun as I remember :face_vomiting:

3.9 watts per (honest) kg. Dropped chain at 16% incline :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

Packing away the turbo for now, see you in December

25.2 for me
3 fans and an ice pack.

Pace that first lap was mental and so many doing more watts on front than they did uphill.

Had a royal battle over the top for 2nd. Then first wasn’t on zp…shame :grimacing:

That was hard.

I still think this racing score is massively flawed.
Last week finishing 16th I moved up 2-3 points, today 2nd and move up just 7 points!
The winner ranked almost 100 points below me.
I was expecting a jump of 20-30.

Its going to take ages for people to move bands.

I don’t want to move up to the top category; it looks lonely and doubtless very painful.

Oh dear… The king of sandbagging himself smashing cat D races…

Zwifts CEO Eric Min… “Testing” the new scoring system.
He was bad enough in cat enforcement B.

Really sets a bad example

Did the Z Racing just now, tough course only just hung on to the front pack over the top of the second climb. Recovered a bit on the downhill and flat. Group of 9 going on to the final climb, didn’t split up as much as I thought it would so it was a drag race to the finish line. 6th place and closest I’ve come to :face_vomiting: at the end of a race

Yes, the one MW and I did didn’t splinter on the last climb like I thought it would. Tbh I don’t fancy that course again today.

I see they’ve had to massively increase the Racing Score range for the top category now, so they get the numbers entered.

Odd. I was waiting for my 4.7/kg race to drop away this week, then annoyingly just raced a 4.4/kg. But I refreshed my profile and I’m now B cat again :man_shrugging:
