The Ouzo Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 one of the reasons I did not carry on with Zwift.Using a dumb trainer with only cadence and speed sensors it was way to easy to just leave the resistance low and cruse past everyone.
Patchelicious Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 That makes so much sense now that you mention it. They are just fooling themselves. Don't know what for. Maybe to get the TRON bike faster, or be quicker to the top to try and collect those Meilensteins...Its simple. They are Zwats (Zwift Twats), nothing complicated, and you can bet your bottom dollar that each of those little Zwats will have some form of justification for it in their heads. JUST like dopers in real life. Probably ex golfers, those ones who always managed to score 40 points
Zeffer Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 And you still find riders (friends) posting IDT rides on Strava of 100kms in 2hours - and everyone is kudoing them. Wtf? Some rode the TransB of 220+kms in 5hrs? Really. Do they really think there is any credibility in such a ride? And then I sweated the 36one in 16hours with 5250m ascent - I kucked off this weekend. Not having a smart trainer is not an excuse you can at least pretend you made some effort.

Benjamin Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 Riders using speed sensors for power source shouldn't be allowed to race on Zwift. If the parameters are correctly set , like weight , wheel size etc, and the correct trainer is selected on setup , and ridden on the correct setting , surely the power algorithm should be accurate ?
NotSoBigBen Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 I treat Rouvy the same I do Strava ... With a pinch of salt! Rouvy to keep me entertained and Strava to keep an eye on my one mate whom I've been 'racing' for about 15 years ... Friendly competition and some good natured ribbing guaranteed!
