    Zwiftcast Episode 75: Peak Zwift (or is it?) Tour de Zwift and all the Zwifty Chat

    The Zwiftcasters welcome in 2020 with the first episode of the new decade – and kick straight off with a discussion of what’s become a landmark in the Zwift calendar – Peak Zwift.

    You can hear which one of the Zwiftcasters, along with special guest guessers, got it right.

    The podcasters go on to discuss whether the second January in Tuesday really will be Peak Zwift this year. The game has a few initiatives upcoming which may see the current record broken. Stay tuned.

    Is the update which restored climbing cadence on Zwift from 80rpm back down to 70rpm a victory for the Zwiftcast? The boys are claiming it!

    The Tour de Zwift is a huge event – more than 120,000 Zwifters took part last year and this year’s event has been eagerly awaited. The podcasters discuss the importance of these events to the community. We also have a feature with Zwift’s VP of Media, Nina Caplin, who explains the aims behind the series of live-streamed shows which run alongside the TdZ this year.

    And we have a velodrome? Actually, we don’t. We have a running track. Simon talks to Zwift’s Mr. Running, Stephen Cousins on how important the 400m track is for our running colleagues – and whether they might one day let the cyclists in!

    We hope you enjoy listening.

      Simon used to live in Yorkshire, but now he spends much of his time in the cycling paradise of Girona and the surrounding area, in Catalonia, Spain. In a previous life he was a journalist and TV producer, spending a career both in front of, but much longer behind, a camera and a microphone. After signing up as User No 10 at Zwift, Simon conjured up the first ever video review of the upstart new platform and later wondered if there was enough going on in Watopia to interest an audience. One hundred episodes and 1.2 million podcast downloads later, he had an answer. Simon has now happily handed over the reins of the Zwiftcast to a great new team. He’ll remain a lifelong friend of Zwift and its community. Recent health issues have kept Simon out of the saddle . . . but he’s now working on a Great Big Comeback.
