I think it’s admirable that TR has a devoted base, but even pros are spending increasingly longer on gamified platforms and incorporating that into training. And let’s be honest here, there’s always guys who’re super fast 5w/kg and up and enjoy a wide variety of training and racing on Zwift and they’re legit in real life too. Surely more fun training is the way forward for many who’re up for trying new things.
TR never has to change its existing plans. That doesn’t mean it can’t offer more things for other people too.
