In reply to Keith Higginson. Where the 'OK' button?

You can do a quick bike change by using your keyboard and hitting A / OK / T (A stops the bike. OK closes the pairing screen. T opens your garage. Swop the bike and pedal)

In reply to Marcelo. Yes you can. You can use a macro to do it, or you can change manually, once your bike has stopped. Done properly, and at the base of a climb, it takes around 15 seconds to achieve.

In reply to Bill. 3/10/23 Update - the profile has now been fixed to show the KOM in the correct spot. Thanks!

Quick note on the ZwiftHUB elevation profile for this course..

Both instances of the Titans Reverse KOM are shown incorrectly. They should be on ascent of the peak immediately before where they’re presently shown. It’s also worth noting that the first time up is still part of the lead-in and therefore wouldn’t appear on this profile.

Lastly, the grade of the climb should be 4.4% instead of 6.6%. It shows in game as 6.6% but that’s wrong also. A quick calc of the delta-elevation vs the delta-distance gives the correct value.

Hope this is helpful for whomever is going to tackle this!

Gravel or MTB for this one? Why not gravel?

You may want to note somewhere that when used as a race the end is 8 miles earlier than the Fuego Flats sprint and instead ends on the second time through the Titans Grove banner. I just lost a race in part because I had this page loaded up in my browser covering part of my Zwift screen so I could track upcoming climb gradients. I had decided to attack at the KOM anyway to try to establish a break and Holy Cow! It Worked. But then the two riders who hopped on my wheel and were now my breakaway buddies suddenly went to 10 W/kg each. Why are you two trying to drop me from my own awesome break? Then I went through the banners thinking I had to work a bit to catch them on the descent and suddenly the race ended. Wait, what???!? Ohhhhhhh . But this is not really a complaint. Love the site. The information is golden. I should have paid attention to the mileage countdown. Keep up the great work.

In reply to David. If you time your bike switch for when you are on an uphill section, you will get to a stop pretty quickly (assuming you’re not going that fast). I haven’t timed my quickest bike switches, but I’m reasonably sure I can do it in under 20 seconds, on an uphill section.

In reply to Stephen.

Same…took me 1:42min @ 2.7w/kg to get the badge from where I spawned. Looking at it now I see that BBS is only calculating 47.2 of the 52.7km I rode. The strava segment also lists Dust in the Wind at 47.3km, not the 54.6km listed here. I think this page should be corrected to show 47.3km with a 5km lead in (that is mostly uphill).

First time these route listings have been off for me. Usually very spot on, and a great resource. Thanks for the effort!
