The Pink Tron

We chat about the week in Herd Racing, including the Return of No Spring Chickens and a new monthly Stampede Challenge, as well as Pedal Games, The Big Spin (and the most important bike in the game), and our dream bikes to add to the game.

This week we chat about the week in Herd Racing, the Zwift Games (along with other upcoming series including Iceni, ECRO, and DRS), the potential for Zwift to bring results in house to Zwift.com, the Tron Power Stance, and ways that bikes bring us together.

This week we gather to talk the week in Herd Racing, before being sidetracked by TrainerRoad and the silliness(?) of riding with both a workout app and Zwift open concurrently, discussing this week's ZRL race and the rash of upgrades, and finishing with our Valentine's.

We discuss the week in Herd Racing, as well as the new Herd kits, one of the hosts hitting level 100, the Dirt Racing Series, and some training tips to prevent stagnation (and whether that should even be the goal).

We discuss the newly trimmed down week in Herd Racing, including the new monthly Stampede Challenge, as well as bouncing around some ideas of things we'd like to be shown in game, on the Zwift website, or even in the companion app. Bike computer replacement in the companion app anyone?

Taking a breath after the Omnium, we get back to our old routine of talking through 1) the week in Herd Racing, which this week focuses on Herd Winter Racing and Herd Beginner Racing, 2) some Zwift news, including some chat about the silly (to be kind) looking Elite Square, and 3) a discussion of which silly little things would be on our Zwift wishlists.

Steve, Craig, Stef and Brent do a quick recap of the Herd Omnium 2025. Some whining, some laughing, some cake. And all of us very, very tired. Let us all know how your omnium experience went in the comments!

We do a deep dive on the weekend's Omnium, including race by race analysis and overall planning, pacing, and recovery advice. Who else is ready to rumble?

The Herd Omnium 2025 is coming the weekend of Jan 18-19, and the Pink Tron crew is excited. We talk through the silliness that awaits. Go sign up. Do it. Now! :) We also discuss changes to pack dynamics, route time estimation, and the week in Herd Racing.

We review the outgoing year, highlighting our favorite Zwift developments from 2024 before going through our annual zResolutions.

This one kind of got away from us. This was probably the first time that we were googling movie releases during the episode, and definitely the first one where Brent gave his thoughts on the Rings of Power show. This was our popcorn peloton show. We also talked about how the Festive 500 is going, and whether anybody got any good cycling gifts for the holidays.

We get together to chat about the week in Herd Racing, updates to the ZRS bands, and our annual Zwiftmas Zwishlists.

The crew gets together to chat about the week in Herd Racing, including a Herd rider's race course in the WTRL course competition, the impending cull of zombie races which will affect many of the Herd Racing time slots, and a cheeky discussion of weight doping for fun (verdict: don't do it, please!)

Craig, Steve, John and Brent chat about this week in Herd racing as well as more ZRS changes and what types of crazy challenges that Marjolein might be "encouraged" to put on during the Christmas Winter-val (we're making it a thing!) in HWR. Drop your thoughts about what types of events you'd like to see in the comments!

This week we talk about our most surprising Zwift celebrity sightings, our plans for a big December, and additional upcoming changes to Zwift Racing Score, in addition to the week in Herd Racing.

We get together to chat about how confusing the Flamme Rouge Racing team event was, Strava's big, bad decision, and the week in Herd Racing.

This week we get together to chat about how to get through racing a stage race (hint, recovery and nutrition are important), what we think of the Jarvis island update, Zwift's bike testing and the future upshot for racing, as well as our TTT bug-a-boos...in addition to the weekly roundup of Herd races!

This week on a very special episode of the Pink Tron (they're all special, though, this one's just as special as all the others), we discuss whether we'd like to ride with Eric Min in Mallorca or whether we'd be too worried about Zwifters' bike handling on mountain roads, whether we think the updates to the Zwift Racing Score algorithm are a step in the right direction, whether the new Zwift Camp...

This week Steve, Stef, John and Brent chat about the new Zwift updates letting us sort our bikes, trainer troubles (including the Wahoo updates) and all the weeks Herd races. And of course, what we are drinking! Thanks for listening.

This week we discuss what setup we'd suggest for a total beginner - more suggestions welcome! Also, the new community course selected for series 2 of ZRL, the Herd takeover of Zwift Community Races, how we're doing on the Zwift Club Challenge, and a check in on the week in Herd Racing.

This week Brent, Sean, Chris, Stef, John and special guest Nathan Trachta talk about the start of everyone's favourite no categories Zwift scratch racing series - Herd Winter Racing! Nate gives us the low down on some new Herd Beginner Racing categories. We talk a bit about the mysterious thing growing up from the depths in Watopia and our favourites out of proposed new routes for ZRL Season 2. Pl...

It's a big crew in ahead of a big final weekend in the Herd Summer Racing Series. We discuss all the Herd racing events this week, delve far too deep into the news about Zwift Racing Score, hear about a controversial new form of sandbagging from John before wrapping up by sharing mechanical woes from our cycling journeys...  

This week we chat about the upcoming Community Racing Festival, the ongoing Herd Club Challenge, and the introduction of Zwift Racing Score as the primary categorization tool (along with the potential drawbacks). We once again try to convince Brent to Everest, this time in response to a rant about XP. Also, apparently it's possible to hack into Shimano Di2 shifting, and now we wait for a mass mech...

This week we discuss the introduction of Zwift Racing Score more broadly across the platform, VR glasses as the future of Zwift, a Metallica whiskey pairing, and Brent's inevitable Everesting failure, along with the week in Herd Racing (including strategy talk for the week's Climber's Gambit inspired HSRL race).

This week we've got a full house, and we chat like it. Among the topics: How cool is it that there's a Zwift Play Konami Code? How did we like the ZRL scoring system? What's the low hanging fruit for making Zwift a better racing game? How much time did Sean spend on his cocktail? We also chat about the week in Herd Racing, in particular this week's HSRL on Champs Elysees.
