Circling back to this: when I look at my Tour Fever progress in ZC, the tile for Ven-Top shows an estimate of 105 minutes (1 hr 45 min). But when I tap that tile it shows an estimated duration of 2 hr 30 min. That’s a pretty significant difference. Which do you suppose is more reliable? And why do these estimates seem to be based on two different power estimates?
Looking through more of the TF routes, nearly all of them have a discrepancy between the time shown on the tile and the time shown in the details. ![]()
Extra time to go through the entire garage and pick out an outfit to wear.(or a very slow down-hill)
Thanks for your feedback - we’re going to add in make up group rides so there’ll be a great to get the kit for completing Stage 4 Long.
Time trialists will wear anything, I suppose.
Thank you James! That’s awesome!!
Appreciated @James_Zwift, Ride On! ![]()
Following up on James’s post - here is a handy link to plan your Makeup Week rides.
Note that make up group rides are scheduled hourly, but there are no race events during this week.
There are race events, but not part of this series. Makuri Madness starts on Monday.
Wore the new bucket hat today. Impressive results and lots of PR’s.
Never thought I’d see sub 35 min up the Alpe.
I also noticed that my XP and Drops rate increased 5x when wearing the new bucket hat, upgrades here I come!
That’s just the level 1 upgrade.
You get a 10x XP multiplier when you get to level 5.
Mind you 30:54 is still THE benchmark. Better than a pro rider. In the female category, still 35:18 with debate raging about the time.
You should do Alpe more often. ![]()
Wore the new bucket hat today.
Disappointed it didn’t speed up the Paris Toujours route like Gravel Mountain.
I wonder how many are actually using that hat because of this talk…
I guess about 2
Planning one or two more segment attacks with new bucket hat.
Maybe Monty at full speed?
Maybe the hat will get nerfed in the next update?
Today, similar wattage, added hat and removed aero socks.(just to test)
Nine seconds faster than my best pr.
