Argus route for Zwift

[Rush1]

Hi

Does anyone have the Argus route file I can export to zwift and use as a training route,if it's possible

 

Regards

I don't think you can import routes into Zwift?

There are multiple options available on Rouvy, and it was also on FullGaz (in three parts, mind you) earlier in the year.

Interesting idea... But a terrible way to train. This is the workout of a madman:

But if it floats your boat, here's another gpx file:

It'll probably give a completely different workout though

I was getting quite excited about the possibility of seeing a custom made Zwift route until I realized it's just the workout and not the actual route ????

Lol yes, I saw the multiple zones , I suppose it's the real life riding variations, pity it's not possible to only import the route with only distance and altitude profile, just seemed a option got the bad weather we are having.  Appreciated!

If you want to "simulate" racing, zwift races are a much better option. Once your brain switches to "this is a race" mode, they're a lot of fun, and can be brutal. Hardest I've ever pushed myself was in a zwift race. The drafting effect also does a good job of making you manage your power and stay in the bunch. 

But otherwise, basic intervals (5 x 5 minutes, 3 x 8 minutes, etc) are much better for actual training. Following that workout created by the GPX file would add a hell of a lot of fatigue to your legs for very little fitness/strength benefit.

If you want to ride the route, just do a 7 day Fulgaz trial. I've ridden my local Waterfront to Chappies route a few times and it is actually quite fun as you know the hills/landmarks so it feels familiar and can be good training. 

Lots of excellent routes on Fulgaz/Rouvy if you don't need the 'company' of other riders.

If you are using a Tacx trainer, try the Tacx Training app - you can upload a gpx route file and ride it in a Google Earth type view. The blue dot is me heading north from Umhlanga...

Rouvy if you want to do this.
