I would appreciate it if Zwift auto-assigned people to the appropriate race category (A,B,C,D) rather than letting the individual choose. It’s been my observation that a good portion of people choose categories that are inappropriate for strength-to-weight ratios, making the racing categories somew…

I need to vent - last night I entered a race and stopped about 3/4 way through. I checked Zwiftpower interim performance stats (not sure if they were “live” while still racing or interim results) and calculated approx 80% of the 25-30 odd were in the wrong category. Example, D grader not once under…

The Lamb Chop Race Today 05:10 So 324 riders on Zwift power and 65 of those were DQed. that is 20% of the riders on Zwift Power were in the wrong starting pen. There were many more riders in the race, who knows how many of them were in the wrong pen. ZwiftPower - Login Zwift race r…

I completely agree that riders should be automatically entered in the correct Class depending on average race ftp (W/Kg) I am a B Class but a lot of people with the same W/KG are entering the C Class which is why i will always end in the tail of the B Class.

Thanks for the info. But how do you find that info. Everytime I look at the ride the zwift is not and easy to navigate website. Seems like I have to go to the app to get more information. But I won’t keep replying here I am obviously off topic. Thanks

Why hasn’t Zwift changed how we enter races yet? For example, if one is a Cat. A on Zwift power why would they have the functionality to race in the C’s? Each rider should only be able to enter their own category when it comes to races. That would eliminate the sandbagging issues that skew race resu…

Given the UCI announcement, the retirement of KISS from organising (as many) races, and the recent ZwiftCast interview, I expect things to happen on this front relatively soon. Zwift have been mostly hands-off regarding racing up to now. Most racing is community-driven and supported, with some in-g…

ZwiftPower - Login is the way to go!
