he he he he he he he he!!!

You know, it's just not the same. Since I race track now it makes more sense for me.

At this point in my life I don't need to cram bike sessions in. I work 40 hours a week, kid has been gone for 12 years and live in an apartment where I don't have to do any yard work or home improvements. I run at lunch 4-5 days a week and have been off swimming for 12 weeks from my separated shoulder.

I like Zwift, I think it's a great training tool but it's not as appealing to me as it used to be and the track is.

ok: no swimming means a lot more time left for commuting to/from the bike track, then :))

For US suscribers that is about a 0.7% inrease in real terms on an annualized basis (based on CPI-U) given that the price was $15/month since 2017. I haven’t checked how that price increase compares to other companies in the same NAICS. Probably would have been a lot less of an uproar by users (at least those on FB, lol) had Zwift implemented the price increase in steps over the last seven years than all at once. For me, the new price still does not even come close to my WTP.

"We’ve got to get in to get out.”

I must be in the minority but with the amount I use zwift, all the options for custom workouts, races, group and paced rides I’d pay double if they asked for it

the world's still turning? >>>>>>> the world's still turning

Totally agree. I’d actually pay more as I find Zwift to be a really good deal for me.

"We’ve got to get in to get out.”

I wonder how these apps would do if they charged $1 per ride. Personally during winter I do 2 rides per week, rainy weeks up to 5

I'm mixed. There are aspects of zwift that I like, but also from a usability perspective the software just doesn't work that well. Given it's now the same price as trainerroad, which worked incredibly well from the beginning, I have a harder time justifying it. Don't really believe them on the "pay more so we can make it better" front

If anyone is interested in trying rouvy, I keep getting this Facebook ad for free week trial

I tried Rouvy this morning, and it performed very well on Apple TV 4K with no lag that I can notice. Really enjoyed the realistic scenery, and the built-in and custom workouts were executed beautifully.

I think they said pay more so we can make it better last time this happened

Lap button guys, lap button

Looks like rouvy making their moves to take on zwift now.. you can ride 20km free once a month.. and price still $15

For me, it’s the social aspect. At the moment it’s got a massive lead over the others in terms of the number of active riders. There is just someone to me that helps mentally knowing there are 1000s of others all active on the same map. Knowing I can go on any time of the day and join a decent sized pack of riders and not feel I’m just cycling alone / looking at the wall. Races are always pretty busy - not once have a joined an event and it was quiet. But that could all easily change with WTRL or similar moving wholesale to another platform
