Zwift, Tour of Watopia 2018

[JuhaL]

Ffs! Everyone, just slow down will you. It’s not a race

That’s why my time was only 46:55

Stage 2 done today - 4 pm session

51:29 (373rd place)

43.00 for me @Whorty (from Zwiftpower)

I don't know about not being a race - that was the hardest ride on Zwift for a good while! I thought it was going to be relatively flat!! Average HR 172 and max 182 says it all

Stage 2 JuhaL 46:55 from zwiftpower.

Also from memory @kipster did 44.22 stage 2

Really? Darn, eyeing up cheap flights to Nice leaving Tuesday and returning Sunday. Anyone recommend anywhere to stay in or around Nice?

when younger i hitchhiked down to south france and worked along the coast half way down as was yugoslavia
one job was selling doughnuts on a nudist beach - not as good as it sounds
seemed like everyone was over 60 and when your on commission you soon find out that nudists have no pockets with money in !

Zwiftpower has a comment on the site saying tour of watopia results will not appear on it.

 

[bridgy]

Oh yeah - wonder why that might be? Because it's "not a race" perhaps!

I guess we'll have to use Strava results instead if we're all on Strava? - stage 2 had a segment for pretty much the whole route (even though the time differed a bit from what was initially on Zwiftpower)

 

[JuhaL]

That's a bit odd because of last 5 events results is there.

 

[CXRAndy]

probably too many riders to filter out

That could be a good point. I don't think "it's not a race" a reason because zwiftpower release results of workout sessions as well.

Rumour has it that zwift asked them to remove the result, which if true is a bit rubbish as zwift have no mechanism to view standings after the event.

Zwift run it like a race giving a current position during the event, which has been to me a little incentive to push a bit more. If they wanted a sportive then no timing or positions should be displayed

Zwift has told Zwiftpower to not display results

But you can see stage 2, 8pm and 10pm from last night

I sended email to Zwift earlier today and i ask if they know any reason why the results are gone. We'll see if they bother to answer that.
