[Ahem] Sorry that got long.
Note that it doesn’t matter if his interpretation of your health risks are correct. The boss in my example, or someone else who might use your HR data against your best interest, won’t tell you they are using your data. You won’t have an opportunity to prove that you are a superhuman athlete, completely immune to strokes and heart attack. (Are you? 
)
It’s not in our best interests to publish our sensitive health data on the internet. That’s crazy
There is also a zwift aero which is the fastest
sir… this is a Wendy’s…
You should have no problem sharing your HR data
That was not considered “private” until someone told you it was.
It’s not really that personal.
If you don’t want to publish, that’s fine but everyone should wonder why you don’t.
Tell me again.
You can have a private setting in Zwift and choose not to share HR in ZwiftPower (and Strava). That will not DQ you in any races as you record HR, but it is not open for anyone else to see.
Does the boss get fired as well for causing huge legal problems for the company? Or for probably being a couch potato and being a health risk merely walking to the office kitchen, like some I’ve seen because they are dangerously unfit.
I wouldn’t worry about the heart rate data being seen, you can’t tell that much from it anyway. Just ride around with a Zwift name you change every week (like some here do) and no avatar and don’t upload activities to a public strava account.
Back to the topic - even the cheating racers are starting to argue who is a bigger cheat for teleporting in their WhatsApp group chats.
that isn’t the topic
It is, because they are cheating for their bike upgrades.
4000km+ per week of dropping is ridiculous - all in the effort to get bike upgrades.
Trying to shut down discussion of it is sweeping it under the carpet and is supporting their cheating.
The methods they are using are dishonest, unfair and must be stopped.
“More productive” would be every getting behind efforts to stop the upgrade cheating and calling it out clearly and making people stop.
nope, you might want it to be but the thread is supposed to be about “New Halo Bikes, New Drop Shop Bikes [March 2025]”
i’m not trying to shut anything down, you do you, I hope the next 1,400 comments are more productive than the first
Have you tried rouvy or mywhoosh? Maybe they will be great for what you’re looking for.
Love it or get out, the Great American Way.
ZHQ has proven they are willing to do so little they’re letting this thread continue, and by continue I mean.. off the rails 
I think that’s what I meant when I said Zwift Carbon. I mostly ride steel bikes & BMX bikes IRL, so that was more fun to me.
But, you should “shut down discussion of it” because the forum rules specifically state:
Man, riding around Jacques has been awful; almost 1/4 of the field around Jacques has been bots this week.
I am actually starting to look forward to these people/things to be done with the upgrades so they can disappear.
Out of interest, how do you tell if a fellow rider is a bot?
Anyway, re pacers, I’ve moved onto upgrading my third specialised bike to unlock the Halo, and chose the cheapest available in the drop shop, which is a gravel bike. (Diverge?) Anyway, whereas on the SL8 I could cruise at circa 2.7w/kg in the Yumi group (notionally 2.9) on the gravel bike I had to average 3.0 to keep up with the Coco (2.6?) group. To be fair, even Coco seemed to be struggling at the back most of the time in a very large group with some lively riders at the front.
There could be a very simple “magic” button.
Simply, teleports could be like coffee breaks, only 1 available every half hour (I would suggest 1 every full hour but my suggestions aren’t valid here)
Distance is the first clue. Once you watch their power, it won’t behave normally (either changes too consistently or doesn’t change).
The only major downside is when teleport fails when you’re trying to use it legitimately.
ie: Thursday I TP’d to Jacques and it put me behind him, and then said “failed to find rider”, and despite putting out plenty of watts I got dropped like a rock.
And had to re-TP and it connected just fine.
Thanks. A new career goal for me is to accused of being a bot!
Previously, I wanted to get so fast I was accused of doling, but never went quickly enough. Persistence and consistency feel more achievable.
