In reply to SteveBob BAteman. Companion app is the obvious one. ZwiftPower also shows your signups.

Is there any way to list the events I’ve joined? A list of “my events”?

I am a big follower on ZwiftPower (and even bought a t-shirt!). I always check ZP for event results and encourage riders to sign up for the service. I’ve migrated to Zwifthacks Events because they list events in 12 hour time for my own time zone, saving me the mental strain of calculating the time adjustment.

BTW, why are so many racers NOT on ZwiftPower? And don’t get me started on folks with hidden ages.

I have described here how you can have your event series be recognised as on at ZwiftHacks: https://zwifthacks.com/custom-pages-for-tags-series-and-clubs/

ZHQ only marks some events with their series, mostly their own series.

Wish Zwift would turn their attention to improving the in-game workout selection interface. It’s dreadful.

‘What’s on Zwift’ is great for filtering to a session but then you are left with trying to find the workout on Zwift itself.

In reply to Jordy.

ZwiftHacks has those details. But one easy way to figure this out is to just look at the category start times – if they are staggered, then you’re starting separately. That’s generally how it’s done, although I suppose it’s possible for everyone to start at once, but to have other categories hidden. You just don’t see that much, far as I know…

what I would like to see before a race is if every level (A,B,C,D) start together or every level separate? I´m racing in B-level but if A-level is included than the dynamics are completly different (hang on for dear life..)

In reply to Richard.

Yeah, it would be nice if all “series” events were in one place.

ZwiftHacks does the best job of this, with their “Series” tab. But I don’t think it’s perfect – not sure how it’s populated, but my guess is some of the race series don’t get picked up by it: https://zwifthacks.com/app/events/

The ability to preview the course with a elevation profile in zwiftpower is much better than the very basic route information (distance/total elevation) in the companion. The fact that the name of the route isn’t even displayed on the in-game event list is crazy, and a huge miss.
For races, an idea of the field quality is useful, and again zwiftpower has an advantage over the other sources in your list which don’t offer anything here. Zwiftracing.app is also great for this, and a useful resource for race selection that is developing fast and could also be on your list
