me 496 watt 😫😫

Did you manualy turn off ERG mode in the part before the freeride? I did the ride with the Zwift Click but it dit not show the gears when I entered the 15sec freeride. Thanks

I was wondering if it releases you from ERG mode 10 seconds before the free ride where it says “start increasing your cadence” In your first test you tabbed straight into the section, so missed the ‘lead in’ sector

💯. Need a 15 sec freeride block before the sprint block to find the right gear and cadence!

On the Zwift Academy 2024 Pro Potential Prologue workout/test, Zwift put in a 1 minute free ride interval and then some text about getting into the right gear and preparing for the sprint right before the 30 second unbounded free-ride test sprint. That was a very elegant way to setup the test interval and make sure people could nail it. That same 1-minute unbounded interval and instruction before the first 15 second would be welcome here. I'll end up doing exactly what you did and taking it off ERG at the tail end of that first 3-minute interval but this would be better handled if they setup the workout with that same brief 1-minute free-ride section right before that first test interval as they did before. At least the second two 15-second intervals have free-ride before them here so that's something.

The first half is absolutely brutal. If you can survive that, you're golden

How do you get the gear number to show on zwift? Mine only shows intensity percentage

Hi Eric! Great video and you’ve given me hope. I have the Zwift Ride (ZR) bundle. I’ve tried this technique but when I try to connect my ZR using the network connection it doesn’t appear. My setup is an Apple TV connected via WiFi down in my garage. Unsure if that matters. Any advice? Thanks!

Yeah, still terrible. Does MC Hammer still perform at the annual Zwift Christmas dance?

Does this review apply to the newer Zwift ride bike/Kickr core combo?

Can others see the icon when you do this?

Looks epic on your PC. I assume this is PC

Hahahhaha you have disc wheels on the buffalo bike! Absolutely epic!

Looks fun. Curious what the reverse KOM is like

Hey Zwift Insider, I have just completed this route today. I thought there was a glitch in Zwift as screen started shaking. Good effect thought. 🙏

Finished it this morning , thought my connection was being lost when everything started to shake and get little weird . But fun and different in a good way .

If you hear banjos -paddle- peddle faster!

WOW! Very Cool… Can’t wait to Ride it 👍💪🚴‍♂️🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️🚴‍♀️

Thank god that wall disappears

wait, so if the “close the gap” message is showing you are still in the draft nonetheless? have you tried doing it but riding close enough for the message to disappear?

Thank you I was looking for this all day yesterday!!! 😅😊

Super gemacht, Respekt 👍

Plans that say for example 1hr/week. Does the plan tell you which days or could you ride every day and finish it earlier if you wanted to? Do you need to do anything to figure out your FTP prior? I'm brand new

I had the play controllers for over a year and had no idea I could do virtual shifting with my Core. I thought I needed the COG ⚙️ 😅

Thank you for the video! What is that plugIn you got there, where you can see the extra data of the other drivers?

Thanks! How do you add the fence option?

Come off it zwift get rid of this ==== If you drop back in a race at a certain distance zwift will hold you back from joining back on you only have to look at the watts you are putting out and not gaining on the bunch why does Zwift do this. In the pack they were putting out around 130 watts and I was putting out nearly 180 watts and made no gain. Don't tell me this is not happening I know it is I have noticed it in the pace groups as well I thought it was just the pace group that did this and not in a race.

are you using a Zwift cog? or just a regular cassette ? when using virtual shifting

I have a Directo xr is that compatible to switch shift. I am having trouble pairing it. I am using apple play.

The ×2 10 min ftp efforts are the worst part of this workout

Sorry but my wahoo kikr core can on 1 bluetooth channel record power/resistance/cadence. Then on the 2 channel the heart rate...so the problem would only be with control zwift ride?

Great job! Way to finish super strong

Nice job!

just used for the first time. Amazing, i won't be going back to gear shifting.

I tend to die at 360w.. trying to psyche myself up for today's ramp test.

Do you use a DS on your team or just someone leads and rides?

Tough week I lost race points this week, strong riders came out and banged out some serious watts!

My click is out of batteries and I stripped the screw. Until I fix it is there a way to virtual shift without a controller or click?

Did my first tiny race today. I had no idea it would be as hard as it was. Great series!

I completed my first ride yesterday and I can confirm that my Apple Watch 7 (WatchOS 11) worked perfectly as a Heart Rate monitor on the dashboard in Zwift 1.74.2 on AppleTV 4K 3rd Gen (tvOS 18). I had the Zwift Companion app opened on both my iPhone 13 Pro (iOS 18) and my Apple Watch. You can see the pre-ride Apple Watch connection in my video by searching for “New Zwift Ride & Rockr Pro Pain Cave”.

Sandbaggers as always...Giant group to the end and most have enough in the tank hold 1000+ watt sprints the last quarter mile, haha

Thank you for all the nice words and the very close sprint! 👌💪

Thanks! My Zwift Ride Smart Frame and Kickr Core Zwift One have arrived, so I’ll be setting them up when my Apple TV 4K & Vizio 43” 4K TV arrive today. Rockr Pro rocker plate arrival TBD. Being new to indoor cycling (<1y outdoor), your video is very helpful to me. Am I correct in assuming Zwift will display the heart rate from Apple Watch via the companion app?

Thanks for the great explanation 👍

Awesome Race Eric…. Congrats 👍🚴‍♂️🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️🚴‍♀️

Which power source from the Kickr are you using Eric? I have the latest version of the Kickr Move but virtual shifting doesn't show up in my settings (I also have the zwift play controllers connected)

Nice!! I’m going to get The Ride by end of year and just waiting for the new Apple TV to come out, if it ever does. Good to know and thanks Eric!!

No Apple Watch :(

Not sure if you referred to it in the video but I would like to see average w/kg not just the current. From what I’m able to find, only after a race in Zwiftpower can one find that number. I would like to see that number as I’m riding to ensure I’m maintaining or at least pushing a little harder.

Is this update not available on Apple TV yet?
