Zwift's Biggest SCAM... "New" Roads

[@jesikat]

To be fair, there's been a lot of people wanting to ride the original Jarvis island for many, many years, and it is the 10th anniversary of Zwift. I think The Classic would make a super interesting hard points race course though! It was never really about adding new roads.

[@DontGetDroppedCycling]

I do like how it's created a few more race loops that I hope get used here and there!

[@liquefied4332]

You thought this was bad, Eric... you should've done the A group long ride "Deca Dash"... going up that kicker 10x was something else, especially in the front group where we were all pinning it up each time... my legs were cooked after that one

[@DontGetDroppedCycling]

Oh I already know how horrible Deca Dash is! Zwift did a great job making everyone hate the new loop 🤪

[@saffacyclist7289]

Sure I saw you on Deca Dash last night? (5pm UK time). Hope you post the video!

[@serendipityrecordco9380]

Having suffered through Deca Dash at 100% trainer resistance, I’d say the route has its use for sweet spot over/under endurance suffer training. Not so fun for trying to keep up with the bots

@@serendipityrecordco9380also wasn’t the best for zone 2 today 😂. Didn’t think about it just jumped in thinking it was 1.5 hours or so

[@fastfire04]

They added a lot of new roads this year already so I figure this little loop is a bonus. It should open up a lot more race loops. Putting the finish like at the new KOM point is spicy

[@DontGetDroppedCycling]

Mmmmmhmmm a finish there would be damn spicy!

[@liamworrall5409]

4m, 3m, 2m, 1m, that was close 😅 Fun one start to finish.

[@DontGetDroppedCycling]

The motivation was fading until I saw we we’re gonna bring you back! 🤪

[@psymanj73]

Well, any new roads are a positive but this latest one is a bit of a let down and I really hope that cutaway scene goes after this latest round of ToW 🤦‍♂️ Top effort though, Erik! Always giving it your best 👊

[@experimenthomicid1354]

Yes, once you've ridden this course once, the cutscene disappears when you ride again, regardless of the course chosen.

[@psymanj73]

@ Nice! 👍

[@psymanj73]

@@experimenthomicid1354 now we just need to get rid of all the other cut scenes 😂

[@DontGetDroppedCycling]

Oh god the cut scenes… the post most people realize is the most dangerous part of the race! Can’t even see yourself getting dropped 🤪

[@lehtjug]

Don't know if I'm pessimist or not but I would say new road instead of new roads. Everything else is been already exist, but I don't mind. Good to ride on Zwift anyway.

[@DontGetDroppedCycling]

Technically we just got an old road back 🤭 New routes to race are always a plus!

[@evilstef667]

12 sec quicker than me , was aswell on the Safety Bike , but did TTT before that ride , pretty flat the whole thing

[@DontGetDroppedCycling]

For the first time I feel like I could feel how much of a pig that safety bike is. Maybe it was just cuz I got dropped but damn!

[@RoyImahara]

There needs to be an Easter egg with some type of Iron man reference on that island. LOL

[@DontGetDroppedCycling]

Ya that is all I can think about when I hear Jarvis!

[@lolczyslaf]

Safety bike didn't help to keep up on those new kickers 🤭

[@DontGetDroppedCycling]

Absolutely not 🙃

[@edwinescamilla2519]

Are you a A rider or B rider ? 🤨

[@lolczyslaf]

@@edwinescamilla2519 Eric is Alfa and Omega rider.

[@robertnobles8189]

Questionable bike choice.. 😂😂😂😂

[@DontGetDroppedCycling]

I had a different KZbin title in my brain before hand with the Safety bike 🤪
