6th Time Riding Zwift Watopia’s Waistband Route
Today was problem solving day and trips to mail boxes. After I finished those I got ready to ride Zwift because the weather outside was bad, not the weather shown on the Strava ride summary below. Outside it was 45 degrees and raining with a strong 10 mph wind. Inside it was toasty once I got warmed up. After opening Zwift on my computer I looked for a route about 15 miles with not too much climbing. The Watopia’s Waistband fit those criteria with what the description said was 15.8 miles and 312 feet of climbing. I got dressed and everything ready. When I clicked on the start ride the distance came up as 17.2 miles which including the lead-in that the 15.8 miles didn’t. Not a problem as long as the climbing didn’t change too much.
While Zwifting I listened to Pandora’s Contemporary Christian Radio songs.
I started pedaling at 3:14 PM and after riding 57:28 I covered 17.51 virtual miles and climbed 335 feet. This was the 6th ride on this route with last one before today on January 10th, 2022. I was thinking today I would try to set some Strava top results but at the end of the ride I didn’t accomplish that. Below is a summary of all the rides on this route. Some of the previous rides were events like the Tour de Zwift and the Tour of Watopia.

The Zwifters online today were much lower than yesterday. When I started I think it was about 8,000 and when I finished it was around 7,000.
