Introducing five new, efficient workouts between 25 and 35 minutes long in the “New Workouts” collection. Starting March 20 / 21 (depending on your local time zone), these workouts will be shown in a new collection called “New Workouts” for anyone using Zwift game version 1.61 or newer
Pressing the Continue button on the post-ride Streaks screen now immediately dismisses the screen.
When selecting a RoboPacer from the Home screen, the current location of the RoboPacer is now easier to see on the route map.

Race results are now accessible via the web, offering a similar level of convenience as Zwift Companion app race results.
Fixed an issue where some route cards didn’t have images on the home screen.
Fixed an issue that could potentially cause a Did Not Finish (DNF) result when racing on routes “The Muckle Yin” in Scotland and “Legends and Lava” in Watopia.

Do you have any questions or issues to report? Let us know below.
Can you expand on this? I looked at someone’s race activity in my feed and it looked normal. Will there be the level of information shown in ZwiftPower?
Will these ‘new workouts’ be recategorised and slotted into the existing categories after a certain time period? Another example of how filters could effectively be used - ‘Filter by: Date added’?
This is good as I don’t believe many realised this information was already shown on the homescreen when making a RoboPacer selection.
Glad to see this! As someone who usually warms up for 10 minutes (as a free ride) and then teleports to join a Pacer, are there any plans to add current location of RoboPacers to the teleport pop-up window? I have no idea how this could be done without adding a lot of clutter, but that’s one reason I’m not a UI designer.
yeah that could get messy… maybe just add an “oops, send me back to where I was” button when you do teleport so you can quickly return to your last spot on the map.
As a message for whoever does the UX desigjn for the website - Zwiftpower has all of the information on one screen, and I can get more information on a race with a single click.
The zwift website is like the opposite of that, multiple clicks and scrolls to find information and no single pane of glass to view things.
It might look pretty, but is a step backwards in user experience for race results / user profiles etc
I despise the Zwift website feed page. Maybe I’m the only person who has this problem but websites where things jump about and resize as you scroll up and down is a personal pet hatred of mine. Plus, the endless amount of scrolling required because the information is
so
incredibly
spaced
out.
Not to mention I don’t understand why there are two big fat icons for each event (which take up the whole page by the way so you can only see one or two events at a time which makes navigating through the list a bit difficult). The first icon isn’t clickable but the second one is and the first icon tells you nothing that the second one doesn’t already.
The end result is the user experience is so unpleasant that I never use the feed on the website and I don’t see that adding the race results will change that.
Finally, I assume the race results on the website are being rolled out as I don’t see them yet (in Australia)?
That’s this weeks rant done. Thank you for reading.
Getting off topic from 1.61 but if my custom workouts could be viewable (and even better, create/edit) in Companion that would be pretty nice. Probably a not-insignificant effort though.
I hope not, those numbers make no sense. Apparently I, a high C, have a higher score than A+ riders with higher watts and w/kg than me over the whole power curve who regularly win A races. And when I lose to people with lower scores, mine goes up.
