Any chance of the tdf TT course being added to the portal? Or is it a bit too long?

The major climb in the TT was the Cote de Domancy, which is one of the Portal climbs.

346

Sorry, I meant the whole course with the climb at the end. I think it was 22.4km.

Maybe a different way the portal is used in the future? Love the climbs but some real world TT courses would be fantastic too

Pourquoi les pourcentages des montĂ©es ne correspondent pas Ă  la rĂ©alitĂ© ?! Dans le Col du Platzerwasel en rĂ©alitĂ© c’est 11-12% maximum !!! Dans le Climb portal de Zwift j’ai vu du 15-16 et mĂȘme 22% !!! C’est nul
ce n’est pas du tout le vrai col que je connais :frowning_face:

ArrĂȘtez d’appeler ça les cols du Tour de France et appelez plutĂŽt ça des cols imaginaires !!

The max gradient on the real climb is 17.4%

La pente maximale sur la montée réelle est de 17,4 %

349

C’est faux !!! Je l’ai roulĂ© sur Zwift il y a 10 jours et j’ai vu 22 % sur mon Ă©cran !! Toute façon 22 ou 17 % tout est faux ça ne correspond pas Ă  la rĂ©alitĂ© !!

350

Dans le réel on ne monte pas au dessus de 12%!
A aucun moment il n’existe de passage Ă  17% dans la rĂ©alitĂ© !!

351

The gradient maps available online from the real life climb would suggest otherwise. Guessing these would be on switch back ramps or some other short ramp?

From where I’m from it is considered rude to change the language in the middle of a conversation.

353

Ça je ne sais pas mais j’habite proche des Vosges et j’ai roulĂ© plusieurs fois en rĂ©alitĂ© sur ce col et il n’y a pas de pourcentage comme sur ce graphique et encore moins par rapport au climb portal de Zwift qui ne ressemble absolument pas Ă  la rĂ©alité

Are you definitely comparing the same side of the climb? Because it seems extremely unlikely that VeloViewer has it wrong, considering that’s a resource that the pro teams use themselves when evaluating a stage.

355

Was that 22% on a corner? Because the inside of a bend sometimes has a very steep (but short) ramp that you usually wouldn’t choose to ride over IRL.

356

Que se soit de n’importe quel cĂŽtĂ© il n’y a pas de passage a 15 - 16% ou plus !!!

357

Please could we have a tab with all the climb portal options selectable?
Ideally be able to select from free ride as well :slight_smile:
Maybe after the UCI tie in September ?

The shorter portal climbs are an ideal workout and I’m not a fan of climbing or workouts, level 60/ 65,000km not a single workout and only 15 times up AdZ !

Please make the climbs available in the Companion App segment list so that we can track and compare our climbs :smile:

Is Zwift still planning on killing the Portal after today? Would be a shame if we lose access to a range of climbs on place of a single rotating climb

The portals are still alive. But only just.

There are three climbs in August. Col du Platzerwasel for the next week. Then Crow Road for two weeks. Then Bealach na Ba for the rest of the month.

I’m really not sure what the logic is behind this schedule.They’ve got two portals available but now they take you to the same climb which won’t change for over a week.

Are they still in France or just Watopia?
