Hi all,
Just completed my last badge - La Reine. The course description says it is a <60 minute workout. Really?
This must be a ‘typo’.
Has anyone completed this route in under 60 minutes?
You’re not trying hard enough.

Difficulty 3/5 seems a bit optimistic as well (btw Gotham Grind is now also 3/5).
Zwift’s route categorization breaks when you go beyond 4/5 in Effort or Duration. (e.g.: Lumping “Uber Pretzel” in with “Quatch Quest” doesn’t track.)
IMO, Zwift would do well to take data from ZwifterBikes (which I believe is based on ZwiftInsider test data) for route duration.
Example: Z1 Concept bike on Uber Pretzel, 300Watts average, 75kg rider: 4hrs15min. Labelling it “90+ minutes” is just nonsensical.
Get on this Zwift - it ain’t even difficult to fix - other people have done the math for you, just plug it in.

Considering the typical duration of a trainer ride and the impact of the spread in rider speeds as rides get longer/climbier, I think “90+ minutes” is good enough.
