First ride out, why not just do Hilly route multiple laps. It's a good hill repeat type of thing. If New York is a current world, you can't go past Grand Central for a nice hill repeat loop.
Any Zwifters out there?

I had a crack at Zwift last night using a stationary trainer with a cadence and speed sensor. Obviously not the optimal setup (and my watch heart rate monitor couldn't be detected).
Seems like it could be a bit of fun, but you definitely need a smart trainer to do it properly.
Also it seemed me to want to click a lot, which is difficult to do when you're sitting on a bike rather than in front of a mouse and keyboard

Cheers guys, will see if I can get to the jungle route.
Otherwise, how do you 'level up' do I have to do races?
Did a quick test this morning, and now have sprint apprentice and whoa Nelly haha.

Just keep riding. Km's accumulate sweat drops and level you up. Select and complete planned routes for XP bonuses.

By the time you understand the game enough to try different routes you'll have reached the level you need anyway.

I had previously tried on a "dumb" trainer with a power meter and found it pretty pointless as you'd just set a comfortable resistance and it would vary your in game speed based on the terrain.
A smart trainer definitely makes it more relevant with the forced resistance increases

The one I did a few days ago only had 4km to the start.

Managed to get to level 6 which opened up the alpe du zwift for me, so have now ticked off the Kom from both sides and the Alpe.
Might have a look in the climb portal tomorrow, if I can still walk.
Quite enjoying it so far haha.

Cruised up the Puy de Dome on death-march-day (after a round of 12hr nights), only got out of bed at 3pm, average 180w with HR at about 150max, watts effort graph was mostly blue so Z2. Though I did have an effort that hit 1161w on the way down on one of the steep ups.
It was a nice ride, I actually don't mind the computer generated road, at least you can see what's coming up.
EDIT: Was 1:18, just seen that was 28 minutes longer than @Ackland 50 minutes
