Introducing the Factory Tour Challenge: A New Electrifying Experience

I’m trying to get 50 points a month. It seems very hard. I’m at 36 for November. Then, I still need six more months.

Exactly.

I think that’s the point. I just crossed the half-way point yesterday, almost 8 months in. Toilet paper socks coming up next summer sometime.

Yeah, definitely not a quick challenge. I just opened up the second part of the challenge not long ago, so it’s gonna be a long road to toilet paper socks for me! :slight_smile:

Very hard is the best thing about it!

lol! :rofl:

Even with my limited riding per day compared to many I finished it. You’ll get there. I tend to be between 60 and 90 minutes riding per day.

Some folks doing more than 1200km/week had it finished in no time at all, so it obviously wasn’t hard enough for them.

It’s not something I really want. I hate the look, but if I can use them in a sprint, then so be it.

There are two sprint segments I think I can beat on a great day with level 5 Cadex tt and disc. Maybe an aero skin suit would be nice.

There is still no reward for Everesting?

What about a different helmet?

Or maybe:

The S-Works would be kind of interesting, a bit Darth Vader style.

And for doing more than 150x ADZ in a year you could get a super-light (and fast) climbing bike. This reward would be manually verified (to avoid exploits) since not too many people would be attempting the challenge.

That was what’s holding me back from trying (now it’s the frequent zwift crashes…..)

But wouldn’t you prefer your ride verified by the official website, that’s way better than any unlock in Zwift:

Sure there is a badge in Zwift that some may have gotten by dishonest means, but they don’t get on the website above. :wink:

And if you want to be serious about it, you do a triple vEverest. 26,560m+, 630km - of course you want to do it. :wink:

If the activity isn’t correct, it can be flagged: Flag activity - Everesting

And the rules: Rules Virtual - Everesting

Virtual shifting is acceptable, and your trainer must be set to 100% effort or equivalent.

You need to patch the electrifying socks, you can still see them when someone uses GHOST power up. Also sauce can detect when someone uses a ghost because draft turns on/off, which to me is a HACK…. Discuss

Tron helmet is still on my list.

Everest jersey seems simple because they already have a badge.

I knew those rules and definitely would have submitted my attempt but still it would have been nice to have a virtual jersey to show off in zwift (like I do with my century kit now)

Do you get any XP for completing this challenge?

You get socks that are aero.

The other challenges give you a bike.

I got my lightning socks last week however, the challenge no longer shows… and well those aero socks are needed! What’s the fix?

it should still be there on the challenge row? That’s where mine is, and I just finally got to the 50% mark for the aero socks, over 425 watt hours or whatever they are.

Yeah mine shows up on the Challenges row as well, however if you start a ride and bring up the menu, you should still see a big Challenges button there you can use to check your progress.

No that’s why I posted the pic.. it’s gone

Thanks Paul I will check that tomorrow if that is there. Gone from my row which is strange……..
