We were in the process of upgrading the way we run Pace Partners in a move to improve their availability and reliability while not changing other aspects of the Pace Partner experience. However, the change created unforeseen inconsistencies in drafting, which in turn impacted the pace of groups ridi…

This sounds like a nice improvement.

@Eric-Schlange-ZI Update for your article. :+1:

Would be awesome to have pace partners in the guest worlds!

You haven’t reverted back yet… C. Cadence is still rolling 5kph slower (and not drafting). But Bowie is behaving properly…

@Eric-Schlange-ZI I checked with the team, and all 4 Pace Partners were reverted to the old way. The person running the Pace Partners says that from his POV, C Cadence is cruising right now at 41kph with a pack around her. She is definitely drafting, with the draft UI present. Is anyone else seein…

Just got done with 45 minutes of riding with CC, all good for me. Had to hold around 2.2 - 2.4 w/kg to stay with her. Just looked at my avg and it was 2.2 w/kg, 25 mph/40 kph

Just logged in to check - and now C. looks to be scooting along at her proper speed. I think it’s working properly now (although it definitely wasn’t when I posted the original message…)

Now we know why they aren’t in other worlds. Not enough staff with spare PC’s! Does this mean there is literally a human turning the bots on and off to the schedule?

I was doing a recovery ride alone and saw the Bowie group come along and jumped on briefly, seemed to be back to normal speed. I was doing about 3.2-3.5w to stay on.

How do I turn the draft UI on like we see in the ZRL prem??? :wink:
