- The Zwiftcast hosts discuss the really significant implications of what looks very much like a price war on trainers as Australian manufacturer Jet Black unveils a gob-smackingly good value - and fully featured - trainer at Eurobike.
Simon chats to Shane and Eric about the consequences, with the Zwiftcasters pausing to take a humorous side-swipe or two at the extraordinary offering from Elite, bucking both pricing trends and design conventions.
Simon also catches up with Dave and Nathan for an extended and joyful conversation about Mark Cavendish’s incredible win at Le Tour. Mark, a great friend of Zwift, finally took his record breaking win on Stage Four.
Elsewhere Simon parses an interview Eric Min granted D C Rainmaker, the first time the Zwift CEO has spoken at length since resuming his top leadership role at the company. Simon provides commentary and analysis on a very interesting chat, with more analysis and reaction from Dave and Nathan.
The chief designer of the Zwift Ride, Graham Stoney reveals some of its development secrets in an extended interview with Simon and Shane and Eric speculate on might be coming next from the Zwift hardware team.
And finally, an in-depth chat with Mr Helpful, the Zwift staffer James Bailey, who volunteers his encyclopaedic knowledge of the more arcane bits of the Zwift platform to help questioners in the Zwift Riders FB group.
Great show! As a community event organiser I want to give a massive shoutout to James Bailey at Zwift. James works so hard to us and does an incredible job. 👏
Loved it - thanks guys. (Anna Russell is great too!)
Hi there, I was just wondering if you had any hope finding a co-host for the podcast? If not I would love to put my name forward as I feel I can offer a great perspective on zwift as a racer, community members and of a young generation.
"Listen to what the community wants"
That was what the Zwift Advisory was meant to be. But...uhhh...yeah, that didn't happen. There was no listening to the community going on with that. It was deeply disappointing how the potential was wasted.
