Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I feel sick as I write this but I need some racing to stay sharp(there are certain efforts I cant do outside of a race, mentally). Has anyone got zwift working on a PC ? If yes do you use the companion add on? Did you need new bluetooth drivers ? I really dont want to buy an IPAD for something I really dont want.

Gobi - yes, I have zwift working on a PC, Mac, iPad and iphone.

I tend to have the main event running on one, the companion app on one of the others.

I didn't need to install anything over and above the zwift software / companion app.

Zwift is pretty good. Hope your tears dry!

I run mine off PC and IPhone, long while since I set it up but I remember

- I did need upgraded graphics card
- I stuck in one of those Ant+ receivers, which I think receives my watt bike bike data.
- then WiFi to connect PC to internet às normal.

Certainly no arsing around with Bluetooth drivers and only have the companion app on my phone.

I only use the companion app when not riding (to book events mainly) and mine is a simple one way set up no erg mode or anything just the watts and cadence on my Wattbike converting to a Zwift speed.

No experience of any of these, but did see that RGT is currently free to use due to the virus crisis.

turns out this isnt strictly true

Installed and using it for just over 3 weeks now , I'm still not gaming but the racing is pushing me hard and that means I am having to accept the value of the App.

Arse :¬)

2 days short of 11 months and I am level 50 , have done 46 Alpes and plan for 4 more before the year is out. I race 2 or 3 times most weeks and have done a number of 5 hour rides.

I guess that says it all really.
