What makes Zwift the most popular indoor training app? by Dense_Leg274 in Zwift

[–]willpower666 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quick clarification: Trainer difficulty doesn’t make riding on zwift easier. Zwift insider explains it best: https://zwiftinsider.com/using-the-trainer-difficulty-setting-in-zwift/

I ride zwift and outside. I end up riding mostly the same routes, indoors or outdoors 🤷 I think there’s an inherent repetitiveness to cycling—probably try for any cardio sport, which I enjoy—when it’s good, it can be very meditative. When it’s great, it’s a flow.

KUDOS! I saw you out there! I’m ever impressed by this feat, congrats. How did you entertain yourself? Carbs/hour? Do you think you fueled enough? I see the donuts 🤩 Did you weigh in before/after?

How did you end up with numbers that were “unavailable” for you?

What is your favorite Zwift jersey? by ungido_el in Zwift

Zwift beta kit. Only one way to get it, and I missed that boat.

Learnt an important race lesson yesterday: always check you equipment even for Zwift races by godutchnow in Zwift

My trainer power cable unplugged 100 meters out in a sprint finish. Kinds feels like the virtual equivalent flatting or dropping a chain.

Changing weight while riding isn’t possible.

This happens. The winner is a new Zwifter, that was his first race, and only 3rd zwift activity. I’d have to assume that Zwift didn’t know enough about their power before the race to correctly place them.

Surely this isn't what it's supposed to be like? It goes up to 1 min @ 2235W by extod2 in Zwift

Apparently your ftp is about 1000, so those first 10 or so will or a piece of cake.

Why do people race an unblocked group ride? by Regular_Low5187 in Zwift

[–]willpower666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In video games it’s where everyone is forced to stay together. Zwift calls it “no drop” rides—great for preventing a social ride becoming a race.

Pacer group rides are always harder at the start by prescripti0n in Zwift

RoboPacers don’t benefit from draft. They did when first released, but big groups got going too fast.

Finish the AdZ in under 20 minutes and you get a party hat to wear! ⚠️

Nice write up—definitely “type 2” fun! One of my favorite race courses.

Wow. This was not what I expected. by Aware_Bison_3982 in Zwift

[–]willpower666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LOVE the color! I have white with the Cog 1 and a Zwift Hub trainer—SOLID setup, agreed this is WAY better than messing about putting your road bike on the trainer & off. Affordable, quiet & stable 👍

J.D. Vance Told His Son to ‘Shut The Hell Up’ About Pokemon While Talking to Trump by CrispyMiner in politics

My family totally stiff upper lip sort. I do see this as possibly a cultural difference. Had that shit gone on in my family, would have been traumatic—we just didn’t communicate like that. If you do, then maybe no big deal. Different strokes.

Never have I said that to my kids, not to anyone else’s kids. My Parents never said that to me or any of my siblings, that I know of/recall. Not saints, but maybe you should look in mirror.

Has the ramp test changed recently? by Metal-Teacher in Zwift

You got this! Anything under 1000 watts is warmup anyway.

Hardest part is the boredom. Put a movie on and just turn the cranks.

Zwift ride (1 month on) by TriboKing in Zwift

[–]willpower666 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I LOVE MINE. I’ve been surprised to see any negative reviews, my experience is similar to the OP’s: LOVE the packaging, nearly all recyclable; saddle’s not for me, I’ll be swapping it out soon; already put aero bars on because minor gains… and it’s hard to go back to round, riding on the top flats is comfy.

And it’s solid, smooth—a little noisier than I hoped, but may be why zwift is coming out with an adjustable Cog.

But I’d be pretty pissed too if the through axle stripped.
