    I am a fan of the climbing portal, it has been rainy in UK so chance to do some zwifting. The climbs just burn more calories for a set amount of time.

    Forgot to log yesterday's ride! Yesterday was a ride with the Miguel Bot in Zwift. Today was the Isola 2000 climb in the Zwift climb portal (which is shockingly brutal - especially since today I was back on my direct drive trainer, so I could feel every change in the gradient. Ow.)

    Ride 1 - 10.17 miles <- Zwift pace-bot
    Ride 2 - 25.00 miles <- Zwift climb portal of yikes

    Today was the Zwift climb portal's version of the Isola 2000 climb at 125% real-world gradient. Bleargh.

    Zwift Academy is starting again! There are zero aspirations of pro here (let's be real - I would have the same chance as a toddler born without legs of attaining pro cyclist status), but it's always fun to do this and improve my fitness. Today was the welcome ride.

    Was intending to do an easy 10 miles, did a climb portal climb instead. 50% because I'd already done the 75, 100 and 125% versions. May as well close it out completely. :wink:

    Impressive riding @wendsg. My husband and I have been glued to the tour. Over our last 2 trips we've drove on a lot of the Alps routes and either visited or stayed at some of the places too. Sad now the Tour is over for another year.

    @Mari33a Thank you! I've been glued to the tour as well - we were streaming it over the speakers in the car while I was driving so I could listen even though I couldn't watch (can't take the eyeballs off the road while towing a camper over mountains!). I'm rather jealous that you got to drive the routes! I'd love to do that myself one of these eons. :smile:

    Today was a swim day, so rode to and from the pool, then had a meetup with a good group of folks in Zwift. Lots of fun!

    I’m trying to hit 180 miles for the month but with running & family stuff all weekend, it’s going to be tight. I’ve 56 left

    You can do it!!

    Today was another easy ride. Tomorrow I have an event ride that may be a bit challenging, depending on whether or not my knees want to play. We'll see how they feel after today's 5k run.

    Great progress, all!!

    Today was riding for the last of the new 'event-only' route badges in Zwift (because even though it's a riding and training platform, it's a video game and I need all the virtual shiny doodads, thank you very much). Good high-pace group today.
