    Zwift - Cruzbike Activities (races and group rides)

    Got it. Ok - I selected the "Figure 8" route, but it just looks like the same route I was before, where you still have to make choices of when to turn or not. What makes it the figure 8? Ok - I googled it and found out you have to do a certain series of turns. Turns taken for forward “Figure 8”...

    Zwift - Cruzbike Activities (races and group rides)

    Jason, Here is my settings page: I don't see a way to change the "power" settings from 50% to full as you had mentioned. Only a setting for virtual power mode - which I know that is not what you're talking about.

    Look at it this way: the only way is up. Just chase those guys around and before you know it you'll be better and beating people. Then they will make you change your group to "C", and then ... "B". Heck, I was at a "D" level when I started riding in June 2014. I'm a solid "B" now and probably...

    For anybody who would like to ride the 3.7 mile loop of the Sebring racetrack for practice, play this video with the repeat on! It starts and stops right about where the timing station is usually setup. Enjoy:

    Woke up at 4am to do my 3:15 Tenaya. Pretty docile compared to most of the other workouts during the week, just a lot longer. 3:15 for on ly 151 TSS - I think I would rather go super hard for half the time for the same TSS, but I understand that is not the goal - Got done just in time to do...

    Wow Jason! - I was up over 300watts in my younger days (about 2 years ago) - but I think age is catching up with me a little now! :) It takes a lot of effort to get and keep it at 4 watts/Kg once you get as old as I am, that it for sure! :eek: It would be a really interesting test for you to put...

    I rode the Warlow TR workout today - but I created the workout in Zwift the night before. Took me about 8-10 minutes to create it, and it is pretty accurate. It is an odd thing riding an ERG workout in a field of 1000 other riders thoough. You are just "pegged" to your wattage for whatever...

    Farther, Faster, Fitter, Fun - (4F - The unofficial Cruzbike training team and support group)

    From my understanding all the accounts (Zwift, TR, TP, Strava) - are all one-user type accounts. Of course nothing is probably preventing you each from logging into the same user and using it - but like you said - it is going to be based on a specific FTP - so only way around that is to be...

    Be just told me he is doing the 24 non-drafting. (So there's 2 - Jason and Ben!) A few others who don't really frequent this forum: Kevin Gambill - He will do the 12 I'm pretty sure - He won it last year with 276.6 miles - (Our plan was to ride together last year, but I flatted, wrecked and...

    Yeah right Ratz! News flash - even if you change to the 12-hour, I'm gonna make you stick with me with that Century group - We've gotta make sure a Cruzbike wins, so the plan in to stick with the group for the first 90, then blow all the other non-Cruzbikes away and pull either Jim or Alvin to a...

    News worthy late breaking story! (I feel like a reporter ;) ) Alvin Maxwell gets a Vendetta! A very good friend of mine and fellow racer: Alvin Maxwell has now procured a Vendetta. (He bought Maria’s “old” red one) I’ve been trying to get him to get one for a year now! I loaned him mine a...

    Today I found out you can create your own workouts in Zwift. I tried from memory to create something like the TR Pettit workout, but I think I over cooked it a little bit, as I think my avg wattage should have been close to 160, not 180. Anyway - good to know you can create your own workouts in...

    Yes - I have made contact - and he is alive - Busy working - imagine that! We're going to chat later after work - and I'll pick his brain and see what he is up to! :)

    I don't think they have a "rule" like that, but I'll ask the event coordinator. Also with that 11 mile loop there are lots and lots of riders. But I think it kind of "takes care of itself" at least for the riders who have not stopped and rested for an entire lap, as it is quickly apparent who is...

    Now - If one where to do: say my 90 minute FTP ramp test (every other day) - and good rest alternating days, I think you would see gradual FTP and endurance improvement. But - IMHO - structured training with variety would be better and less boring: You need some intervals way above your FTP to...
