While in game, as opposed to just being able to give other riders #rideons, it would be great if we could request to follow with a mouse click when iewing that rider too. It is very often that you make a new relation while riding, but then never get a chance to find the rider through the other, kind of flawed, follow request system. THIS ENHANCEMENT WOULD HELP US ALL TO BE MORE SOCIAL. I also would like to see ALL of those I follow, not just those NEARBYE when I am riding, as per view only when NOT in game for the same kind of SOCIAL reason. Thx. #zwiftΔriding #dZiRides4Nepal #rideon
Great minds think alike? 
In-game follow is coming soon. Development started a few weeks ago for the ground work needed.
