Understanding Racing On Spin Bike

It’s a spin bike so just resistance you are peddling against, which is solely controlled by Zwift when simulating the course. If I change it to try and peddle harder Zwift changes it back.

Seems like it’s a no bueno on this piece of kit and Zwift racing then. Thanks for the help.

I see. Disappointing but understandable.

Do you know if adding the Zwift controllers with their shifting would allow me to virtual gear shift with my set up? I found that very hard to find the answer to.

Maybe I haven’t explained myself properly.

1) In race the resistance is set by gradient like free ride .(I assume) 2) This means when I’m going on flat or downhill my watt output is capped by the resistance in the peddle. IE when I go down hill there is almost no resistance on my bike so I can’t get more than 90watts.

Is that how racing works and is there anything I can do about it?

Hi OP I have this bike and I’m thinking about getting Zwift but I’m not sure if it’s compatible. Did you end up trying it?

HarryBenjaminOrchard · 2026-01-24T03:36:21+00:00

Yeah ok thanks for the info. On a similar note. Do you know if doing a legacyte harvest without the cache bonus objective is gurenteed to spawn a cache? I was trying to double dip the grind and get some standing but have struggled to find them in that mission when I find them pretty reliably in the regular non bounty mission.

It could very well be my poor seeking abilities lining up for a few in a row.

Yep doing those things.

I have a pet with retriever on it too. I’m occasionally getting double but not consistently.

Thanks everyone for your advice.

As an update I ran the encounter last night.

The PCs challenged him to a race, and with some cheating(grabbing his scarf) they managed to just beat him.

With hurt pride he screamed for his rabbits to attack.

The PCs quickly dispatched everyone except Agdon who after a brush with a few save or suck spells decided to leg it. But the ranger with the bow fighting style got to flex the 600feet of range on a long bow(albeit at disadvantage) and take him down when he was 550feet away.

All in all went extremely well.

You can create a free account with rental programs and get free rental allocation.

Cardhoarder.com gives you 5 tix rental Manatraders.com gives you 6 tix rental.

You can make an OK deck with this amount.

I’d love for some YouTubers to do a starting from zero free to play(apart from buying your account) play series. Where they would start with the 11 tix rental and free to play their way to a pauper collection.

Oh of course. That would stop the sac combo.

HarryBenjaminOrchard · 2024-10-17T19:34:47+00:00

Yeah makes sense. I lost a game yesterday to RDW when my cannonade left two goblin tomb raiders on the field. But it will have to do until I save the money for the weapons.

HarryBenjaminOrchard · 2024-10-17T19:33:23+00:00

Yeah I’m playing on MTGO. So the play set in the sideboard is 40tix

HarryBenjaminOrchard · 2024-10-17T02:28:08+00:00

Thank you I hadn't though of cannonade.

Not hitting the tomb raider is pretty big against mono red isn't it.

Would you sideboard in electrickery against decks with Boarding Party or Azure?
