Steering again

Get in a group of 4 - can’t get on a wheel because presumably the other 3 have steering. Normally I’d share turns but it’s impossible if you’ve effectively been riding on the front the whole time.

In the end had to sit up - event spoilt. Ok i could get steering - or zwift could fix it so I autosteer to follow the wheel in front. As it is it’s getting unusable - sadly I’ve got 5 months subscription left but if it remains like this I’m off.

For those that want steering great but as it is it doesn’t work if you don’t.

You could message the riders that you would take a turn if they would stay out of the gutter.

It’s been discussed quite a bit on other threads. I think it’s really bad the way it works now - bad for racing, bad for TTT, bad for group ride sweepers. However as far as I know Zwift has not acknowledged that this is a problem, has not said if it’s working as intended, or if they plan to work on it.

I’ve just reduced my height to the minimum - zwift’s physics takes the **** if you are 6’2" so I’m now 90cm. If I’m forced to be in the wind I may as well minimise how much if me there is!

Why the need to cheat?

The concept of fairness went out the window when zwift screwed those of us without steering.

You’re going about this the wrong way, but while you’re at it, reduce your weight to 54kg so you can be a master climber, be a trooper and go all in.

Amazing stuff to both complain about this then admit to cheating on the thread rather than wait for a sensible fix. :joy:

Someone should mark this as “solved”

Ok it might be funnier that the race you refer to was not a race. One tactic you can employ is to coffee stop on the steering folks.

Auto DQ for height manipulation is working as intended at least!
