Harryn Posted March 26, 2020 Share Hi ladies and gents. From tonight cycling outside is verboten, but not inside! So, lets have regular group rides on Zwift, we chat, ride and chill together, share stories,and give each other strength and comfort during this surreal, dystopian and terrifying time. So, I will be organising meet ups, and everyone is welcome, whether beginner, weekend warrior, or cycling god. The idea idea is to ride together as a bunch, but I guess anyone who wants to ride away at be at 5w/kg is most welcome. Anyway, follow me on Zwift, and I will invite you to my meet ups - just maybe also post your zwift name on here, or pm it to me, so I don’t miss anyone out. My Zwift name: Harry Nochumsohn The first ride is at 6pm tonight (joburg time) and we are riding 60 mins of the Watopia Out and Back route. Note : I have it on very good authority (aka @V12man) that we should quite ride easy at this time, so as not to compromise the immune system. So the rides are just “coffee rides” - not opfok sessions. I will be going be going slow, but only cos i cant go fast. But each to his own. If you do not have a smart trainer, you can use an ordinary dumb trainer with a speed sensor and an ant + dongle. Here’s how : https://youtu.be/Eg0IDDmSStw Capricorn, HdB, RocknRolla and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eldron Posted March 27, 2020 Share Isn't there a ring or fence function which keeps everyone in a group regardless of how much power they making? Edit: Found it! https://zwiftinsider.com/keep-everyone-together/ - cool feature. Everyone rides their own pace together. Pretty sweet. You can even do intervals etc while being social(ly isolated).

fanievb Posted March 27, 2020 Share Isn't there a ring or fence function which keeps everyone in a group regardless of how much power they making? nope, you can ride off in the distance if you want. like HdB did last night I just tried to control the breakaway Eldron and HdB 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RocknRolla Posted March 27, 2020 Share Hi my name is R.ock'nRolla... I like social rides on the Zwift island during Lockdown, and shooting the breeze...my relative effort is plainly visible through the numerous typos while I zwift and type.... Looking forward to this Jakkals., fanievb and HdB 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
