I think the only way, with closed races, is to join the pen as if racing but then click on another rider. Then, when the race starts you're tracking that rider. I've always struggled to watch closed races ... so if there is another way, I'd be really interested too :okay:

If you join discord then you could be our director sportif*

Ha ha, that would be funny ... @Brendan Parker shouting abuse at us over Discord :laugh: Just better make sure he's on mute for his work call ......

"Over to you Brendan, what's your update?"
"Come on Whorty, move your ass up that hill FFS. Michael, Chris, WTF you doing letting Petersen get away, come on ... chase on!!"
"Erm, yeah, so it's sounds like Brendan is in control of his projects. Now, who wants to go next?"

:tongue:

I have often thought, if you take it really seriously, it would help to have a non-rider scanning Zwiftpower LIVE so they could advise on gaps and who is likely to be disqualified etc.
Oh yeah, that would be useful too :shy:
 
so i join the race as normal, I get that bit, at what point do/can you switch to viewing other riders??
edit, correct me if I'm wrong please I presume once everyone has left the pen just click on riders?

maybe easy for someone who has an idea on this sort of thing, I will have a bash but if you were going to you should still just incase I mess it up :blush:
Ok here are my instructions

Sign up to join the race as a competitor as per normal.

I assume you are using a PC?

Before the race starts press 'windows' key and 'G' together. This will launch the record features in Windows. Then press Record to start.

To watch other riders click on their name on the right side list.

You as a Racer will just sit on the start line. You can jump from rider to rider to watch who you like. Don't press return to me else all you will record is yourself sat on the start line.

Soon as the race starts click on a rider high up the table, then just look out for Cyclechat riders to click on their names

Easy:okay:

I think you can do it in the pen. Click on Michael then when we go you'll be watching him and see any of those of us who hang on early - you can then just flick between riders after that. Not sure what happens if you go back to yourself though

I've just checked on a recording made on Saturday. As soon as the race starts - the names board pops up on the right - it isn't there as you warm up - so you should be able to latch onto someone straight away. Then just hop up and down the leaderboard as you wish. But as others have said - maybe best not go back to you - as who knows what will happen :smile:
