Props? He blew up the freaking race! He doesn't get props for doing that crap. He and other cat A racers need to stop using the lower cats for crap like this. We aren't your YT content farm.

As a cat C rider, I found it interesting to watch the difference in fitness levels. When I started zwift, I was cat D but quickly moved to cat C, then struggled to stay with the pack to now being able to keep with the lead pack. It was interesting to see the insights on cat B racing, and give me something to aim for. Granted it’a not for everyone, but it does highlight how far you can go by just working harder.

⁠@@Freerider93 oh jfc people complain about everything. People at this level string these races out all the time and bonk all the time. People lie about weights in those races also and go on to win. Him doing this is no real issue. There’s not hoards of UKpostsrs doing this….. I’m always amazed at the amount of people that literally complain about everything. It’s Zwift it doesn’t matter.

@@Freerider93 , calm down Francis, nobody chases in the D and C races because they're mostly weight doping and running at category limits. If they aren't then they can't chase anyhow. So no, he didn't blow up the race, everyone in the race saw him ride off the front early in the race and concluded he was going to get DQ'd for category violations. And if this wasn't a category enforced race, then there would have been 15-20 other A cat racers there to pull him back. Category enforced D and C races are a dance with category limits more than anything else. That's where the strategy lies. Reverse weight doping, sitting in and not pulling, etc. is what the D and C category races are made up of. Signed: Won the last 2 rounds of ZRL C category by literally riding off the front, then got bumped to the B's (intentional). I did it "natty" though, and got clobbered BAD in my B races (dropped in less than 7 minutes on Loop the Loop during Zwift Games) because I didn't have 10kg's to shed overnight or a bunch of untapped watts to cash in.

@@Freerider93disagree. Its cool to see the differences . I never race to win anyways. I race to beat my prior time

12,000km is incredible, thats more than most cyclists !

he wouldnt hang in an elite zwift race - not against guy who know HOW to race zwift, and are stronger than him.

He’s not the same rider on a trainer. 800W sprint!

@@toefur66KNot to mention Jeff's fantastic bike handling and decision making skills during crits don't matter nearly as much in Zwift races

Did you not watch? They cheated. He was beat by someone doing 5 w/kg that claimed they weighed 99 lbs. Unlikely

@@damu6678so what? Whoever cheats only hurts themselves, no one else. It’s a game; when they go IRL, they will be burned to the ground…and ZwiftPower is getting smarter now; not easy to cheat as it was in the past

​@@tsops22Cheating ruins race dynamics so it affects others.

Absolutely, I’m actually surprised they don’t have a virtual team.

Whose Zwift videos do you watch? 😂

Same thought here 😂 seems even worse than me smurfing SC2 as a kid

He abandoned the races in D and C, so he didn't steal a win

Smurfing lmao… that’s so funny. Tell me you’re a gamer without telling me your a gamer 😂 Sandbagging is the common term lolol

Watch the video... he quit those races

@@jellystones72 after showing them who's the boss, smurfing full time 24/7

So you enjoyed him sandbagging through different cats?

Congrats on your increase, great effort!

It’s a good call!

When I started biking strait of 20 years of elite volleyball I had a 1600Watt sprint 210watt FTP . .. Now 8 years of biking mainly social endurance stuff my sprint is 1200ish but FTP is 300-320ish .. I am also 94kg and stay on the Flat stuff when Racing zwift :P ..

I’m patiently waiting for a downhill racing series for is bigger cyclists to enjoy 😂

I tend to agree that sprints start further out in Zwift… also depending on your trainer there is a big of lag between putting the power down and it reflecting in game.
