A lot of people have fake zwift climbing included.
Here’s my year
450h, which is about 8.5h/week.
Max CTL 81
2 Peaks of fitness
About 450k feet of real climbing
Thanks! Early riser and mornings are my favourite time to ride whether that’s indoors or outdoors so tend to get in 2 hours + most mornings before work
The rest is filled in with lunchtimes / evenings when I can
what is ‘fake zwift’?
I meant fake Zwift ft/meters of climbing.
Almost exclusively outdoors, I only ride indoor for training sessions when the weather isn’t worth it. Being in SoCal, that’s rare.
I didn’t run enough last year, so I need to fix that this year.
220 of those hours were in the last six months of the year.
If I can average 40 hours plus a month in 2024 I’ll be a happy chap. Most of those hours are z2 and I am currently reaping the benefit of that whilst using polarised HV as a framework.
Here’s to a successful year of riding
I guess really need to up these numbers.
Specially what the hell is going with all the Z1, I guess is the rest time on TR.
My stats include a 3 mile walk most every morning with my wife. Usually climbs about 400 ft.
Total Time 663 hrs
Distance 6143 miles
Elevation gained 240,646 ft
329 days active

All indoors. All rides bar one on Zwift. 9% uplift in hours over 2022. 25% uplift in fake mileage. ![]()

ETA: I suspect that all bar about 3 minutes of my massive 3h49mins of coasting was at the end of rides either rolling down AduZ or just rolling to a halt to round up to the nearest whole km.
Strava says 229 hours of riding.
I had a really rough fall schedule volunteer coaching futbol (6 days/week, usually with 2-4 games in a weekend), and 365 has been the goal the last few years. I don’t regret it, but it totally ruined a numbers game.
366 is the goal for 2024. We’ll see what the soccer practice schedules look like… I might be able to pull it off.
Can I see the stats somewhere at TR website? I do not post TR indoor rides to Strava, but I sync my Garmin for outdoor rides with both Strava and TR
To hit your numbers I’d have to ride about 21,000km at an average speed of 37 km/h or more.
It must be my local terrain then - my annual numbers put me at about 367m of climbing per hour which sounds pretty reasonable. I do very little flat riding and almost no trainer, so this makes sense. My go-to loop is around 480m per hour based on some quick math, so that offsets the longer rolling routes I do. Plus I do a lot of mtn biking which pushes up the meters per hour.
In Garmin Connect click the “reports” tab → “cycling” → “total activity time” → “1 year”
Yeah mtn biking always ups the rate of climbing. Almost all my training is outdoors, but we simply don’t have the long sustained hills, it’s more rolling about 10m per km or about 53 feet per mile.
