TrainerRoad Team on Zwift

I e just finished build and undecided if I’ll do SS base again or 40k TT specialty. I have generally done the short crit city races as I enjoy them and it interferes less with the training plan. They work out to be around 20 odd minutes near threshold so I just adjust the training for that day accordingly.
I might start doing longer races and if I do will just do the race instead of the workout, maybe add some zone 2 after if needed or time permits.

Hi!

Is anyone thinking/planning to do the Haute Route this weekend?

I had considered it, but the weather is going to be too nice to stay inside for these days. So I will skip it this time.

I’ll be there. Still too smokey for outdoor rides here in NorCal.

Something that may be worth some research:

Can’t wait to hear more details about this. I’d love to be part of a team! Need to practice team time trial though :wink:

I think I am going to do Friday for sure and maybe Saturday, but as rides not races due to the early start time.

I’m hoping to do the 6am PST Saturday route. I have a nice long sweet spot workout planned, so that route will lend itself to seeing how well I can do it!

Maybe I’ll join up Sat morning. Depends on air quality and outdoor riding here…

This sounds like something that could really get the competitive juices really going. Put me down for team TR.

So last Saturday I had a 3:30 TR workout scheduled and figured why not just put in the Uber Pretzel route in there and see how far I got. End of the workout I was somewhat close to the foot of the Alpe, so I extended it and almost 5 hours in I crest the mountain…NO ROUTE BADGE!!!

Turns out the new software version messed up awarding badges for some routes, and their customer support can’t manually add them in.

So my question, next time I have a long workout and the bug is fixed, do I weight dope the crap out of my account and also lower my height to make myself the size of a small child to get the route badge I did rightfully earn? It feels dirty to be even thinking about it…but is this the right solution?

Cool,

my tentative schedule (EST) is Fri noon, Sat and Sun 9am

I hope to see some other TR riders!

I had that happen on Quatch Quest, just a two hour route for me so not a big deal, and VenTop when Z dropped 0.9km from the top. I just redid them later… but Uber pretzel is a different animal.

It wouldn’t sit well with me either way, but I don’t think I’d “dope” even under those circumstances. Seems a slippery slope to me, but that might be silly.

I’m going do to Friday’s ride at 4:00am US EDT as scheduled. Saturday I will join the 4am event but not start riding until 5:30 or 6:00am EDT. Jury’s still out on Sunday.

If anyone is doing the 6am PST/9am EST Saturday route and wants to do a group workout on TR as well, let me know!
