The Wrong Bike Mishap

The race report

Felt good going into this race I was sitting at about 200 Racing Score but had been training hard and was rested for the Race. I have been leveling up my canyon speedmax time trial bike in the game and was doing my warm up on this bike...about 2 to 3 minutes into the race I noticed I was on the zwift steel frame road bike lol - disaster (no time trial bikes allowed obviously in these races) so Zwift automatically reverts to this bike for some reason so I was handicapped completely (excuses i know). Regardless I gave it my all this race and made it to the end in the lead group (minus the top 2 who I believe must have been fresh off a summer of outdoor riding and whose racing score wasnt in the appropriate category yet).

This race ended with an uphill "sprint" I had nothing really left in the tank but still managed to get around 700 watts for a second or two and placed 9th in the race (zwift power showing 8th). Proud of this result.

Something about Zwift racing just pushes you to the next level, im going to try and make sure starting in October I do 1 race a week just to push my body beyond what I am comfortable with!
