For me, if you're a serious racer then go do it in the real world not on a cartoon simulator. Swift and bkool are games and shouldn't be taken seriously. Incorrect, stupid times should be removed, but who really cares if someone is weight doping, or has a trainer that gives them an advantage? I want to compete with those who are as fast as me, how they get that speed and whether they are actually that fast in real life is irrelevant to me. Its a bit of fun to get fit but I want the organisers to keep the leagues updated.
And fwiw Bob, I take it as a given you won't agree with anything I sày.
But then we are not talking about you Carl but people who do take it seriously and want to race competitively against their peers. It is they, and others, who have set up the races not Zwift, they that categorise them and set the rules. That’s not unreasonable. They don’t ask for evidence of irl rides in cats b,c and d. some of the A cat racing has been ruined by people weight doping etc to extremes, setting bots racing and so on. Why shouldn’t there be rules to exclude those that are blatantly doing this at Cat A level which is fiercely competitive and now beginning to attract serious E sports money? What you want and need, and to an extent what I want and need to, has nothing to do with Cat A racing. There’s lots of other riding for us elsewhere on either platform.
Oh, and Carl, I don’t disagree with you for the sake of it. We all hold opinions and you are free to give yours and frequently do. if you say something I disagree with I may say so here. It’s not a knee jerk reaction. In fact on occasion I have refrained from replying to some of your posts. Be assured though that If I agree with something you say I will say so as well.
