    Zwiftcast Episode 99: Nathan braves a tornado as the Zwiftcasters chew through all the latest Zwifty news and chat

    The three amigos are back together for the first time in a few Eps to chew through all the latest Zwifty news, chat, and gossip… in an episode recorded as Nathan nervously kept an eye on a tornado headed towards his studio!

    Simon, Shane, and Nathan kick off with a review of the first interview from Zwift’s newish in post Chief Product Officer, YC, before meeting the Zwifter who accomplished a magnificently mad ride of 100 miles standing up. Prominent Zwifter Chad Tavernia goes one better chatting with Simon, promising to repeat the feat inside. Good luck with that Chad!

    The Zwiftcasters move on to discuss what can only really be described as a pretty chaotic game update in July – and Shane switches on rant mode. 

    Auto-categorisation is a solution to sandbagging in racing long advocated by many Zwifters and now, thanks to Martin Carew at WTRL Racing, a nascent system is being tested in earnest. Simon checks in with Martin for a progress report.

    The Zwiftcasters round off Ep 99 with a chat on the latest tech, including Elite’s RIZER device and Zwift’s decision not to attend the upcoming Eurobike show.

    With an off-piste diversion into Speed Walking plus a little bit of news for runners on the platform, the boys wrap it up for this one. 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.
