I started the dirt destroyer training plan and reached the first “surge to the max” today. The erg mode works exellent until the last minute of power surge. Because the program is then set to free ride at a cadense of 65 so you can put your best effort to it, you need to time the ride to be at a ste…

As you can see the incline is maxed out, and so is the bias. But the fact is, those things are multipliers, so if your road is 0% you can multiply it by whatever you want, it will never become harder. You can’t transform something flat in an uphill. I agree with the others in this topic. This thin…

You can clearly see I maxed out everything in the companion app. What else was I supposed to do?

Zwift running on Windows 10, using the Companion app (which works fine) on an iPhone 13 Pro. Bluetooth dongle in the Windows machine, and a Wahoo Kickr + HR strap connected to that bluetooth dongle.

The thing is, I’ve been running this setup multiple times per week since October with zero issues. Not in workouts, not in free rides. Everything works as it should. I don’t want to risk introducing new problems by downgrading for 1 workout that Zwift should fix (or at least document) imo.

I doubt that it a issue with the workout. Do you want to make a free ride workout and test it, to confirm that it is indeed that workout. I would test it but I don’t have access to the workout yet.

Same issue, just did the ride today. Using a completely different hardware/software setup. Kinetic R1 - which works flawlessly until you hit this free ride. This is NOT a hardware issue.
