I bet Tron would be better due to the significant flatter & descending portions, but bike changes could also make sense

A lot of the segments don’t line up with the routes if you do them as an event, including this one.

Wait, what? I was 75+k when I decided to stop because it was taken me to the KOM again. Why they don’t update the map previews and the distances?

I hadn’t really studied the route and was wondering what we were going to do with the 20+ km between the Epic Kom descent and the finish.

I was unpleasantly surprised when we started climbing Epic Kom for the second time and horrified when there were still 2 kms left at the Epic Kom banner. A surprise Radio Tower after almost three hours of riding is a good way to train your stamina. No badge though.

Same here ! I did a race on the pretzel the other month, I definitely completed it because I got the badge in Zwift, but I don’t have the segment on Strava or the ZwiftInsider Veloviewer leaderboards. 😭
