Zwift Chat

I haven't put the fan in place yet. That one will be hung upside down from the underside of the desk top (where my legs would be if I were sitting up to the desk). If I need a second fan, that will be wall or floor mounted.

Change of plan... The desk has a small drawer on the RHS. I have piled a few of my no longer needed university textbooks*** in that and placed the fan on top. That puts it in a good position to cool me during turbo sessions and it is not in line with the TV screen so it should be okay there. (If I find it distracting then I will go back to plan #A.)


*** Will I ever really want to study electromagnetic fields and forces again?

Answer: NO!!!

You might once you start thinking about how to get more free watts

excellent - well done. All the best people crossed the line in 7th today - just sayin'

Looking at the results, not only did I come 7th on the finish line, I also came 7th on FAL for the first KOM and 7th on FTS for the second. AND I finished 7th in the prologue last week. I think I've found my place in this league!

Make sure that you change your Challenge settings to the new 'Factory Tour' Challenge (once you've got the Tron, obviously), to make sure you're progressing towards the CdA-reducing aero socks!

How muchy Watty savings, new sockies?

I calculated yesterday it's going to take me more than a year to get them . I still need the Zwift update before I can see it.

The first part of the challenge releases "Lightning socks" that just do sparkly things, and then you have to do the MUCH longer second part of the challenge to get the "Aero Electric socks" that give you a CdA reduction - but I don't think they've said how much yet

Is anyone else able to access their profile on zwiftracing.app? I'm getting Internal Server Error when I try to look at mine - don't know if it's just me though?

Probably way too much (from the perspective of those who don't have them), or way too little (from the perspective of those who do)!

They're having problems. One of the API users seems to be hammering the server and they've yet to get to the bottom of it.

Ah OK - thanks for confirming

Is that also causing a delay with DRS completing the stage results?

Yes - the two issues may or may not be connected

If it's only would be possible on Zwift I would like to test which one save's more watts, aero socks or without socks (weight saves)

Bit of a random one
