@Ian_Kessinger

what does the sun mean?

An outdoor ride

[Arhu (Arhu74)]

Lucky antipodes, they get 3 months of summer riding outdoor XP added while we were all stuck inside anyway

Edit:wrong, no xp for past rides, only tss counts

[Dan_Kothlow (Dan)]

From what I read, @Mike_Rowe1 answered it.

[Florian_Eger (Florian Eger [HCC])]

Are the Outdoor XP points paid retroactively? If so, how far back in history do the XP points go? 90 days?

[Arhu (Arhu74)]

Doesn’t seem to be the case for xp only for tss (or whatever zwift calls it)

[Arhu (Arhu74)]

Xp points for outdoor rides

@Tim_Camden_C

would have preferred a stripe on my socks instead of the Chihuahua in the back pocket.

Streak Saver devalues it.

It’s not a chihuahua, it’s Scotty the Squirrel! No streak savers do not devalue it, it would be double punishment to lose a streak because life happens sometimes…

Same question here, I saw a screenshot from someone with a wahoo device and for him the xp was showing retroactive. In my case I use Garmin, it shows outdoor rides but not the amount of xp for those, it looks like it’s not working properly for Garmin

, it looks like it’s not working properly for Garmin

I’m not seeing XP for my past rides on Wahoo, only the test ride I did today has the little sun and the XP amount in the fitness tracker. The other past activities don’t have any indication on the fitness tracker, I only see them in the “activities” list under “just me”.

[Nick_ZHQ (Nick)]

You’ll only see XP for new rides. It’s not retroactive.

@Mike_Rowe1

Is power data being brought over from the Wahoo app into Zwift, and will the power data be used to calculate things like our zFTP and ZRS?

@Nick_ZHQ can you answer this question too please?

[Nick_ZHQ (Nick)]

@Mike_Rowe1

Is power data being brought over from the Wahoo app into Zwift, and will the power data be used to calculate things like our zFTP and ZRS?

Outdoor rides won’t count towards zFTP or ZRS for now, but we may revisit this in the future.

[Mike_Rowe1 (Mike)]

@Nick_ZHQ

but we may revisit this in the future.

Oh please do!Iit would help so much with people coming back to racing in the fall if their power metrics were up to date and accurate based on outdoor rides all summer. Plus wouldn’t it be nice to see how their outdoor power compares to their indoor power? Major differences could help stamp out sandbagging.

[Mike_Rowe1 (Mike)]

Further more on this, but what is the downside to including outdoor power into the calculation… not everyone has power meters on their outdoor bikes, but those that do should have that included in their Zwift power curve. I just don’t see any negatives to that… maybe it is too difficult to code?

[Arhu (Arhu74)]

I have wahoo and only got xp for today…

[David_St1 (David)]

Zwift Running Workouts dont get added to the Fitness Tracker?

[Mike_Rowe1 (Mike)]

crazy right!

[Thomas_Sorensen_eCKD (Thomas)]

I second this.

It’s fine for people who want that kind of stuff, but I have no use for my weekly ride time and the Zwift machine’s appraisal of my training status, so this widget is basically just a nuisance that I have to scroll past every time I use ZCA.

Would be great to be able to either scrap it or move it to the bottom

@calfzilla

Is forcing a weekly goal on users who didn’t have/want one before intended behavior with this rollout?

Yeah that feature is kinda bad. never had a goal and dont want it forced on me.
