Ian Bibby (JLT Condor) Pro had an ave power 298W, so not way above us mere mortals. He did climb Keith in 8min50 so a fair bit quicker.

Probably a fair bit lighter too. :-)
EDIT: 65 kg (same as Lee) according to this https://teamengland.org/team-england-athletes/ian-bibby
Amen to that!That works fine on a short hill, but no amount of sticky draft is going to help on a 5Km climb like Keith HillThe only thing to do there is grit your teeth, dig deep, and ignore the pain. I was actually surprised that I only lost 20-30 places on the climb last night, I was expecting 100-150 if not more, I surprised myself by holding just over FTP for those 15 minutes of pain!
I signed on for the KISS EUR on Tuesday and saw a mass of cyclechatters, so figured I'd join the group while I warmed up. But the group was in the middle of climbing Keith Hill. Ugh. Left in the dust, but still used it as a good warm up before the race.
'twas expecting two laps (and thus two climbs up box hill), but they only had us do a single lap in D. Uneventful up to the climb where I essentially was telling myself not to drop anchor. I think I kept ~200W for the duration, though the fastest riders in D sped away. Crested with one other and we were promptly caught on the downhill by a lone rider using an aero. My other companion then used his truck. I had nothing, but did just enough to stick with them. Both seemed to be taking it easy on the flat part in the subway, so I guessed they were both pretty spent. I hit the gas hard on the climb out of the subway, opened a good gap and held ~200W for the final mile finishing about 10s ahead of them. Another 2nd. 10s behind the official winner.
KISS EUR if I can get away from meetings.

it really helped that you were the only one in the blue hat so i knew where you were , i was trying to keep you in sight at all times without going too deep - checking hr more than anything else, as said in previous posts i found out you can reduce effort a bit and get dragged along - but its a dangerous game to play and i got spat out back a couple of times . it was lucky for me that someone stuck a hill at the endWe were in a nice big group of 60-80 riders when we hit Keith Hill, then 65 kg was suddenly much better than 84 kg. I lost about 1m40s on the climb to Lee and around 70 spots.
i don't think i could have kept up on the flat much longer
Is this a Zwift Power feature or bug? When I'm not logged in to ZP it defaults to time zone Europe/Jersey. I can then find yeasterday's Tour de Zwift stage 3 at 18:00. At the top it says Results (1075). I can find Carl and Chris in the rankings, but not myself.
When I login, I switch to time zone Europe/copenhagen and I find the event at 17:00, but it now says Result (686) and I can only find myself, not Carl and Chris.
