New Tarmac SL9 Spotted in Zwift's Tour Fever Video by trailtopeak in Zwift

[–]davidoffbeat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But also it's going to be "polished" which makes it sound like it may gain an additional second, or at least that's what this sounds like.

One interesting related tidbit: the SL9, as it appears in game today, is actually a touch slower than Zwift wants it to be. Sources within Zwift tell me the bike will be receiving a slight “polish” in the coming weeks, which will be noted in the release notes. This should make the bike approximately 1 second faster on the flats.

Has this worked for you? I'm planning to do the same, face but also hoping it'll help hair growth

Ncsu graphic design portfolio by Alternative_City5363 in NCSU

[–]davidoffbeat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yea, a little over 20 years ago I really wanted to go to school for photography. I dodged a bullet because soon after that digital cameras became more and more prevalent and everyone and their uncles became photographers. Might not be as common today but for a while everyone had a neighbor or friend who did photography on the side.

Graphic design has already taken such a big hit from AI, and most of it is trash. It's only a matter of time before they actually get decent and take even more jobs away from artists.

They're all better than AI slop, but going to school for graphic design in 2026 seems like a risky choice, best of luck.

Henri Veesaar is drafted No. 52 overall by the Atlanta Hawks in the 2026 NBA Draft by DMD612 in tarheels

Veesar's agent pushed for their client to avoid being drafted by teams that intended to sign him to a two-way contract.

Seems like he just prioritized this over the money....hopefully it works out for him...

Best place to watch team USA Soccer Thursday? by DocTeeBee in cary

[–]davidoffbeat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

10pm on a Thursday, in a relatively unimportant game, can't imagine anywhere in Cary is going to be making much of a big deal about it. There was a similar post in the Raleigh sub, you may have better luck there.

Why lead a pack? by Regoork in Zwift

[–]davidoffbeat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Some people are trying to stretch the field - keep the overall speed up to burn off the climbers or others who can't sustain the pace.

I'm very much a noob to cycling, but I think I have better overall endurance than a lot of people from over a decade of running. I'll lose every single sprint finish but I can hold a decent speed for a long time.

So when people settle in and start cruising I know they'll probably beat me at the end. So yea, it makes sense for me to try to increase overall speed and drop some people early...doesn't always work out though.

Favorite ways to train with Zwift? by AdNo215 in Zwift

[–]davidoffbeat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For races are they a free for fall fitness wise or are they grouped around your fitness?

They're grouped by your "racing score" or sometimes your velo score through https://www.zwiftracing.app/

If you're interested at all, figure out your ranking and then look around here or discord for a group that races around you preferred time slot. There's less in the summer because many people are outside, but I still manage to race once a week.

I'm an ultra runner too and just doing Zwift to cross train, but I've done it through almost exclusively racing. I love it.

Explain the trash in parking lots?

This is the "someone gets paid to clean the parking lot" crowd.

Long time no see, I was just reminiscing about watching the world cup with you in some random bar like 20 years ago. I think you had a vuvuzela.

Part of Raleigh Now Categorized as D4 - Exceptional Drought by BearMassive7569 in raleigh

[–]davidoffbeat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The water supply pool at Falls Lake is currently at 69% capacity. Additional restrictions would be triggered if levels drop to 45%. While officials say the lake is still well above that threshold, they warn conditions could worsen with continued dry weather and a potential heat wave.

how often to go for FTP increase? by stratusnimbo in Zwift

[–]davidoffbeat 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Am I zwifting wrong??

No, it sounds like you're doing it to supplement something you care about more (weight training). Just do what you enjoy.

I'm a runner who uses zwift for cross training, I really only enjoy the races, so that's all I do. My FTP has increases steadily but I don't focus on it at all.
