I do Tewit wells regularly.. I’m almost 68 years of age not a gifted cyclist and I found it an easy way to get 200 m of elevation in. I tend to the course till e get to 210 metres about 9 k then I do it again sometimes. Takes about an hour for 400m climbing. Currently doing the Everest challenge. It will take me ages but I’m finding this a manageable way.

In reply to tom.

There is none, because Strava forces segments to be a certain length, and that sprint is too short. I’ve been complaining about it for years! https://support.strava.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/115000161524-Strava-has-decided-to-stop-anyone-from-making-short-segments-

Thank you for the efforts so far!

I can’t seem to find the yorkshire forward sprint segment. Is this possible?

In reply to Eric Schlange. I was wondering if it’s the spawning that changes my results vs what you have. Say it’s really busy, like when 30k+ are riding, could you end up being spawned say a kilometre further back to create enough space for all joiners? Would certainly explain it for this route. Good race on the Crit circuit today. You jumped in with a group of us in a league in SW England making up a lot of the numbers. You beat me!

Thought I’d toss in my $.02 worth too. Rode both Tour of Tewit Well and Duchy Estate back to back two days ago, rode through the banner at the end of the route, uploaded to Strava as well, but I don’t have the ‘badge’ in the Zwift screen. Data (distance and Time) is correct on the calendar, and in my Activity Feed it shows “Achievement Unlocked” and in the Companion App it shows I got both badges. Just doesn’t show in the actual Zwift Program under badges.

Got the ‘addicted’ badge yesterday and rode Royal Pump Room 8 and both those badges posted fine.

In reply to Richard A.

I understand your frustration, but it’s not a huge challenge to figure out the accurate overall length. It’s just the lead-in length plus the route length.

Zwift’s numbers are confusing in-game because they don’t tell you the lead-in length… but at least now they show it as a blue line at the start, so you have some idea of what you’re in for.

In reply to Eric Schlange. It’s close but it’s not correct. There are others I’ve seen where it’s a lot further out. The more frustrating is what Zwift shows as the route when you select it. Zwift is nowhere near accurate. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate your hard work!

Ummm… our data says 27.7km and 480m of climbing. Seems pretty accurate to me…? https://zwiftinsider.com/route/royal-pump-room-8/

In reply to Jamison Roberts. Same distance for me today 27.8km and 490m of climbing. I’m finding that all the ZwiftInsider.com route distances and elevation are unreliable, in some cases by a long distance.
