Look everyone, we get it. Being at the bottom of a category sucks. Being at the top of a category is good fun. Being near the top of a category with a massive sprint, even better.
The CE system is not designed to fix the problem of fixed/static categories. It is designed to stop sandbaggers (riders racing lower than their assigned category) and cruisers (riders deliberately managing their 20m power numbers to stay in a lower category than they are truly capable of).
Many of these comments, and the ones on the other thread, are blaming CE for the issue of fixed categories.
On the roadmap shared this week is the feature for race organisers to customise the boundaries. This means that those always at the top or always at the bottom won’t be limited to this consistent experience. Sometimes hammer, sometimes nail. (n.b. If you can’t sprint, climb, or hold great power for a breakaway, realistically you will never be the hammer. Sorry. That’s bike racing).
Longer term hopefully there will also be a ranking system so in every race, whether you are in the upper or lower half of the field, you will have ranking points to fight for versus your piers.
