Doing a TR workout in Zwift but at a meetup?

TrainerRoad Software

My club is planning a Zwift meetup today. Does anyone know if I can do my TR workout within that meetup? I ask because I would have to pay for Zwift again to join, which I would do if I know for certain it works.

Hey @macdian :slight_smile:

Great question! Two of our colleagues came up with the idea of creating a Zwift MeetUp + loading and completing a scheduled TrainerRoad workout as a group during it (context here).

Here is how it goes (in this case they both loaded a TR Workout to complete):

  • Both of them scheduled Dans in their TrainerRoad Calendars for today’s date.
  • Their Dans workouts pushed properly to Zwift.
  • One of them created a Zwift Meetup session.
  • Then invited the other to the Meetup to join.
  • Once in the game, they selected Dans, and it displayed in the top left corner of their Zwift screen
  • When the timer finished, the Zwift Workout Player appeared at the top of their screen
    • Workout Player popped up.
  • They started the workout together & finished the rides.
  • After they saved their Zwift rides, they synced back to TR and both auto-matched successfully

While there are some bugs on Zwift’s side—such as not being able to stop pedaling or occasionally not being on the same screen after a few minutes—The important thing here is that TrainerRoad worked almost flawlessly.
