Minor thing. You wrote: “Go even further ahead and that message will disappear. This is the danger zone!. Going further away will eventually cause your entire Drops Multiplier game to disappear/reset.”. –> I think once you’re in the danger zone, there is a timer going and once a certain time is reached and you’re still in the danger zone, the multiplier is reset. So it’s a time thing, rather than going further.

Only a small point, but the robopacer also hands out ride-ons. Any info on the mechanics of that? ie how often do they do it? – is it only to the ‘nearest’ n riders, like the ride-on bomb, or is it to everyone in the group – maybe everyone who’s not getting a keep-up or slow-down message?

I feel the closer to the pacer, the faster the factor moves up. Is it just me?
Almost 61,000,000 drops and still counting…

I’m level 54 and I have over 23 million drops that I have not used. The bikes and wheels have not been updated in quite sometime. Nothing really interests me as far as new frames or wheels. I ride with the robo pacers regularly and I enjoy the company. Once I had all the cool frames and wheels the drops are pretty much worthless.

In reply to Steven Walker. Hmm if it’s time based though speed wouldn’t matter. I could be wrong on that it’s faster maybe I just was paying so much attention trying to hang on that time flew by lol.

In reply to Duke. i think it’s consistent. It could be because when sitting with an A pacer you’re going so much faster than at C, so it feels like you’re moving up quicker?

Another incentive to get Zwift Play controllers: they have brakes! Easier to drop back quickly when needed to stay close to the pacer.

Does the multiplier time vary by Robopacer? I feel like A contance multiplies faster than Coco.
