Slack Randoms: Plant-Based Bikes, VR Climbing & More

@Chuckolicious: I don't have a trainer that adjusts resistance, so I mostly only shift up to sprint and down when I can't hold a gear any longer. The grade may affect my virtual speed, but I don't need to shift to go up or down a hill, I just crank out X watts. Conversely, I am constantly shifting to match the terrain while trail riding. Being in the right gear to keep traction on a climb or get that last pedal stroke before a drop is critical. I also only use zwift to maintain fitness when I can't get out. I'm sure if I raced it could be more nuanced.

Finally Zwifting for mountain bikers! No need to finesse anything or downshift for hills. Just crank out the watts and watch the world go by. Like being in your basement, but outdoors.

Pinkbike Poll: What Would It Take For You to Become a Faster Rider?

This! If I knew I couldn't get hurt, or it would only hurt for a minute, I'd be so much faster. As I age, my time off the bike increases and the sympathy I get from my wife decreases with every injury.
