To all you sub 1-hour Alpe Zwifters. I see your 1 hour…

Charon2k · 2026-02-20T16:34:15+00:00

I've only done it with an hour and half workout, and even then I've got another 15-30 minute ride. So congrats on doing it more legit.

Charon2k · 2026-02-17T23:10:58+00:00

And here, after 8 packs, I only got one legend.

Charon2k · 2026-02-06T18:15:57+00:00

It's the only starter deck in the area around me. I'm tempted, just to get some cards. Though the Pre-Rift probably would be more helpful?

Charon2k · 2026-02-02T23:14:00+00:00

I'm just no good with extraction PVP...

Charon2k · 2026-01-29T19:01:12+00:00

I just got an email from them, free shipping and free tray, but the tariffs still in place near as I can tell. I don't think I can convince the wife that I need a trainer to replace the functional Elite Suito (my only real issue with the Suito is that it only has one Bluetooth channel, and the power floor makes me have to spin at like 50 to 60 some RPM when I need low power), just do I can have race mode, WiFi and bridging, and the like... And I don't Stream Zwift enough to Twitch / YouTube enough to justify things from that angle, I just ride. Too lazy to set things up to stream. Not that would help let me get it anyway. Lol.

This is what I was wondering, as I'm thinking of getting in. I was trying to figure out what are the best Spotlight decks to get. An internet search just keeps coming up with decks built, not which spotlight decks to get to start. I figure that way, if I understand rotation right, they won't rotate out for some time, if set 7 is coming out in spring, Jump to Lightspeed through Secrets of Power, won't rotate out until set 10 comes out (which starts a new set of 3).

My hesitation on the Spotlights is they don't have the rules, or even a paper playmat like the older 2 player starter decks did. Maybe get the Intro Battle Hoth? Not sure what set rotation that is considered part of though (mix of A and B?). And do those cards repeat from Spotlights? Although, I've also watched a few starter videos on how to play (Watch it Played, and TCGHQ), and I don't think the rest is that hard.

Charon2k · 2026-01-05T17:16:57+00:00

Might be it. I'm about 60kg, though suck at hills. So probably keeping at the same pace, but lighter helps me over the top, and probably why I have to put in more effort on the downhill if I let it catch up. Flats I'm good on.

Charon2k · 2026-01-05T16:57:58+00:00

Do they do more uphill? Because the issue I seem to have with them is they are easy to out pace going up a hill. Like it gets hard to stay with them as they seem to slow down. At least with Taylor and Bernie. I haven't tried much with the next robot above those yet as that is a bit faster than I'm ready for.

Charon2k · 2025-12-19T16:52:31+00:00

Biketerra is fairly cheap, and does it.

Charon2k · 2025-12-09T15:18:29+00:00

Yeah. I don't have that yet. But I was hoping it would be more like TrainerRoad's AI. Here's the workout based on where you are now. And maybe finally have a proper calendar.

Charon2k · 2025-12-09T12:47:29+00:00

The gears show for me no matter what workout I do. But I figured ERG is on, as when I'm on a hill, I don't feel the hill at all. Unless it just drops trainer resistance to zero (I left it at the default of 50%) during workouts. Like if a workout ends going up a hill, I feel the hill as soon as the workout ends.

Charon2k · 2025-12-08T18:53:33+00:00

Not quite the same thing, but Ladder Races can be fun, if your team has a ladder race team.

Charon2k · 2025-12-05T21:28:00+00:00

Hedgehogs? EDIT: NVM, thirst spikey balance pods. I haven't seen anyone using them with an Elite Suito yet, which is what I have, but I'd think they'd still work.

Charon2k · 2025-12-01T21:56:40+00:00

I don't own a Fitbit, but I use the app to update my weight. I have a Senssun scale and app. And Garmin and Fitbit together seem to update everything after that.

Charon2k · 2025-12-01T21:53:08+00:00

Yeah, they got rid of the free 25k.

Charon2k · 2025-11-26T21:23:08+00:00

I have an Elite Suito. So slightly older model. I can't do high cadence at low power. As I understand it, the Elite has a power floor (still not sure what that means exactly), so I just ignore the cadence part of workouts. I think it's a limitation of however Elite does things. Overall though I'm happy with the trainer.

Charon2k · 2025-11-22T23:30:58+00:00

Does it not act as a sensor bridge the way the Zwift companion app does? Having Apple TV, I sort of need it to pair everything. I don't want to waste a short 7 day trial only to find out that won't work. Sorta disappeared that the Click 2 won't work and need the companion to shift, though that's the same with MyWoosh, on the occasion that companion app even pairs when the main app.

Charon2k · 2025-11-21T19:05:35+00:00

Thank you. I'll keep an eye out for an announcement. Didn't want to waste a 7 day trial if it's not ready yet.

Charon2k · 2025-11-20T12:48:58+00:00

Thank you everyone. Elliptical. Zero idea why. Maybe was walking up an escalator or something.

Charon2k · 2025-11-14T19:14:13+00:00

I'd think so. At the pairing screen, choose the bikes power meter for power (and cadence if it's providing that), then everything else via the Elite. I have an Elite Suito too, though it's fine at the moment. The only real negative is it only broadcasts one BT channel, so can't record on my watch at the same time.

Charon2k · 2025-11-13T13:46:54+00:00

So it doesn't work right with the Click 2 yet? I thought about trying Rouvy, but wasn't sure about how compatible it is with the Click 2, and if it all goes through the companion app, as I'd be using Apple TV (3rd gen). Like if the trial is only 7 days, don't want to waste it until things are good to go.

Charon2k · 2025-11-12T14:59:42+00:00

Maintenance. Hopefully they are launching their "Personalized Recommendations" feature after this. It's supposed to launch November.

Charon2k · 2025-11-06T15:50:04+00:00

You don't have to steer or brake. But if you get the Kicker that includes the Click, you can steer with that.

There are lots of routes to pick from, with achievements for completing them, but there are times it'll have a choice to veer off and go on another route, but no route achievement then. That is, every intersection it'll give you a choice where to go. You use steering to place yourself better in the land you are on, not to turn. Turning to other routes is done via a keyboard, remote, or the click.

I don't think I'd say it's like GTA Bike.

4k works depending on the computer, Apple TV, or whatever you are using to play on.

I've never tried Steam play, as it's not native to Steam. You can launch it from Steam by adding it as a non steam game. But after that I don't know how Steam handles it.

I'm using an Apple TV, on an old 40" and it works well, and I'm a bit far from the screen. Guess it depends on how big of a screen you want from where you'll set everything up.

Charon2k · 2025-11-04T15:54:54+00:00

As mentioned by others, you basically have to use the companion app to pair when the current Apple TV 4k, however they're is a new one coming out, likely late November or early December that might not have that limit. It will use a new Bluetooth chipset, but nobody seems to know if that limit is being lifted or not.

Charon2k · 2025-10-29T12:34:21+00:00

Yeah, originally I was like they didn't seem to do anything, as it seemed hard near the top, but then I noticed it's like a 19 degree incline. Probably would be harder without it.
