@Mantis_Toboggan I just turned off wofi and bluetooth and opened Zwift. Hit “Skip” on the pairing screen. It asks are you sure you want to skip because you can’t ride until you connect.Say “Yes” and the normal screen with worlds pops up as well as your current challenges on the left. (TdZ and Wahoo Climbing Mission). So yes you can check this while at work ![]()
It’s because of the strong headwind. ![]()
??? The challenge says it starts the 24th. It doesn’t say the 24th in china, or Australia! The 24th is the 24th. The precise moment in time doesn’t matter. If I wanted to jump on my bike at 2:00am on 1/24, that ride should count. Zwift dropped the ball on this. Period.
Which I said earlier.
@James_Zwift Thank you for acknowledging. I didn’t see that in the comments. Sorry. I also didn’t see whether Zwift was going to fix? Hopefully so. I’m about to climb Alpe in 30 mins. I’ll take note of the before and after progress %
Looks like I received credit for my Jan.24 ride. Thank you Zwift.
Hey Cathy,
This was just for the events before 8am PST on the 24th - you will absolutely get credit for the ride you are about to do.
For those who rode on January 24 prior to 8am US Pacific time - we’re working on a way to automatically credit you. Please allow us a few days to do that. You won’t have to lift a finger, we’ll take care of it! We’re also going to extend the “window” so that the mission ends at 23:59pm local time on February 27th.
You’re going to knock off a good chunk on that ride, hope it goes well!
Thank you, James! Appreciate your reply. Have a great day.
Added the maths note to my post.
But I don’t think the Volcano logic you wrote is right, because Zwift appears to add all your activities, then do the rounding. So you wouldn’t lose 53’ each time.
Thanks James for working the issue. It is truly appreciated. Enjoy the rest of your week.
Right, that is why I said this in my post:
The article states: Finishing this mission is equivalent to summiting the Volcano almost 32 times!
which is not the same as doing the Volcano Climb route and could be confusing for some.
eu também fiz duas pedaladas no dia 24 de janeiro com +/- 500 de elevação e não está computando na missão, somente começou a computar do dia 25 de janeiro em dia! como faz pra corrigir isso e colocar a correta elevação?
Para aqueles que viajaram em 24 de janeiro antes das 8h, horário do Pacífico dos EUA - estamos trabalhando em uma maneira de creditá-lo automaticamente. Por favor, permita-nos alguns dias para fazer isso. Você não precisa levantar um dedo, nós cuidamos disso! Também vamos estender a “janela” para que a missão termine às 23h59, horário local, do dia 27 de fevereiro.
James
You can’t please all of the people all of the time but many thanks for trying.
I spent a most enjoyable 1.5 hours this afternoon proving to myself that the Wahoo climbing mission total distance is rounded, up and down, to nearest 200 ft (1%of full challenge distance) and then converted to metres only to find out this evening that someone else had already worked that out 13 hours earlier!!! Hey Ho.
BUT certainly not wasted time as I did add an additional 1000 ft to the Wahoo mission and 1500 ft to my TRON bike challenge.
ARGH - but why 1500ft on the challenge and only 1000 on the mission you immediately ask?
I noticed during my fairly mundane, but yet still enjoyable and rewarding, afternoon session that If I didn’t complete around 1.3 miles on my activity then the activity report was not posted/published to my ‘ACTIVITIES’ page on companion app. (I also noticed if distance on activity was shorter than around 1.3 miles it also didn’t save to Strava - is there a close correlation between the two ?)
So to prove a point and with nothing better to do nine very short cycles later I managed to add 505 feet to my Tron Challenge and also my Zwift Companion App lifetime ELEVATION total without adding at all to the Wahoo Climb Mission.
So I hazard a guess that every activity, ride, race, workout etc, counts towards the Wahoo Climb Mission as long as it shows up on your Activity Feed Report.
On 24th January I chose to run rather than cycle so I won’t comment any further on that issue other than to say for a great many that day’s anticipation and experience must have been so similar to those setting out on the 1848 California Gold Rush.
So now tomorrow do I complete just a 1 mile climb up Alpe de Zwift at the risk of losing around 500 ft of climbing on my Wahoo Climbing Mission
?
Turns out the actual challenge is to reverse engineer the Zwift rounding algorithm and distance thresholds for vertical to count in the challenge ![]()
If successful maybe you unlock a calculator jersey!
UPDATE:
We have batch-credited all those who are missing elevation from their rides on Monday January 24. Upon your next log in, you should see those meters added to the progress bar for your Wahoo Climbing Mission.
If you do not, and need one-on-one assistance, please use the Contact Us link on support.zwift.com if you haven’t already.
Lastly - as James stated above - the final day of the Mission has been time zone-adjusted, so no worries there either.
This has worked for my account, 3 rides Perth, AU added. Ta
Woohoo! An extra 4%. Thanks, @shooj!
FYI - I’m still missing 448m of climbing on 24th NZ time (10am test ride and 2 * TD4 stages in afternoon) @shooj - might hit up support. Cheers to Dev team regardless.
Yup, thanks @Dean
A few people may have slipped through the cracks. Please contact Support if that’s you.
Some may have been credited a few more meters than they actually rode. If you’d like us to take some climbing meters away - we can help with that too. ![]()
