By the way, does anyone know the reason for adopting w/kg for CE calculation?
I’m very curious about this reason. I know this is not a measure of speed.
I think that is the core of the problem.

It doesn’t use w/kg
It does use w/kg when the pens are enforced through CE though, since the pens are based on w/kg.
true, I was assuming they meant the 95% of best 20 minute old ZwiftPower calculation for some reason.
While the numbers are expressed in w/kg they are derived from critical power and MAP. Not sure if that makes any difference?
You seem to be taking the brunt of everything for the last while, to be fair. Is Flint still with the business?
If I can ask another question (sorry for being repetitive) why has 60 days been chosen and not a much longer period?
i think it’s fair. i think 90 is fine too. people get injured or sick
Every time I engage, I get lynched, so what do you expect to happen?
i expect you to awaken to some kind of masochistic fetish centred wholly around being flamed online by dudes who inflated the back tire up too much on their tacx flow and got upgraded to C
Sure but if you were recently injured or ill you can’t expect to be competitive. If one wants to take racing serious that is. I know people see it just as training, maybe I do as well, but does not mean that’s all it has to be. Now it will be it with an ‘injury’ you can just race lower and beat people there that might take it serious.
As you have mentioned this, there seems to be a want from Zwift staff to take the praise for fixing something (after it broke) but wont take responsibility for the broken things that dont get fixed…
There is a real bitterness when the mirror is held up to Zwifts standards.
For me you cant have it both ways…

What can we do with this kind of riders without dual recording using a spin bike destroying Cat A field…with World Tour numbers?

Im loving the KISS DQ messages ![]()
Edit to add - Its hell of rabbit hole if you start looking at the people who beat him in races.
that DQ BS is a cracking code tbf
was CE enabled on the 18:30 anti-sandbagging race as i was allowed to join any pen i fancied
Lol yeah right that’s going to happen.
The really easy practical way to fix it is just to perform the CP calculation in W/kg in the first place. Just like the current 20 min system. It’s hardly rocket science.
- Report weight changes and ban cheaters
- Lock category after upgrade for 60 days
- Use minimum weight over 60 days
How about pen enforcement at race time? So if you increase weight to get into a lower category and then lower it again, it will just bump you to the new pen and alert the user. That alert can happen as soon as the hange is made - just a quick look forward to already registered events and see if anything needs adjusting.
Sorry what?
All, way over 24 hours with doubled weight, and I can still only enter cat B as lowest?
Did you ride any events after becoming heavier and before ~1400 today, so the event data would be processed in time for today’s CE adjustments?

Not everyone is a racer. Racing on Zwift is for everyone, not just serious folks, and a lot of people’s performances fatigue quickly for whatever reason (dont race much, age, available time to train etc). Why should they not get fair racing and have to spend 90 days waiting for a reset?
