This is part of the Makuri Islands map. Zwift changes which maps are available each day. It’s always Watopia and two other “guest worlds”. Whenever Makuri Islands is available, these routes will be available to free ride. Hope that helps!

Just an observation, and maybe it’s comfortable for you, but your handlebars look a tad too wide. Have you ridden a narrower bar? I moved to a narrower bar after a fitting and it helped relieve some pressure on my hands. Thanks for posting!

My Zwift Plays are less than 50cm away from my external bluetooth dongle, and it still struggles to pair! But that seems to be a BLE issue, as my power pedals take forever to pair properly over BLE as well, but are instant with ANT+. BLE seems fairly unreliable (compared to regular Bluetooth). And feels like virtual shifting when you have actual gears is a solution in search of a problem, personally :p

You might need to use an extension USB cable and a BT dongle. Place the dongle as close to the zwiftplay's as you can. Some people mount it just under the stem. You could also try pairing all of your BT devices through your phone.
@CaedmonCycling
@CaedmonCycling 7 ай бұрын
Thanks Roy! Between ANT+, Bluetooth with the ZwiftHub and my phone, it’s tough to know where everything is connecting now. I’m assuming the Zwift plays are currently connected through my phone. Perhaps the BT dongle so they are connected through my laptop is the best way forward. May try this!

I wonder if it is a pairing issue with the shifter where it disconnects and then shuts off because of that. Have you tried to delete the device and reconnect it. I pair my Play controllers to my Zwift Hub and have been lucky I and haven't had any issues with them.

Great ride Caedmon!! I didn’t realize you were the one that went early. Not until I saw this did I realize it was you up the road. I got to watch the Zwift Community races on Monday to get a good idea when to go. Luckily the slow pace (2 min slower than Monday) helped with that final push. Again awesome race and hope to see you out there again soon.
