I just did it this week and I agree that it’s elevator music. Very poor music choices.
@Gilles.T and Sir @TrapMeSuf the only way for me to register over 200 (I think my max ever was 217) is with my old Garmin Ant+ cadence sensor, and a USB/Ant+ dongle on an extension cable. I question the veracity of the results accuracy but it’s fun to look at post-ride regardless.
My Kickr ‘18 reports up to about 150 then dies and my only other sensor, the wahoo cadence one, does about the same.
As for the tunes in the new Cadence Builds, it wouldn’t have been my choice but I honestly don’t mind it so much and kinda like the jazzy little bit for the builds.
Not a fan of the remastered SUF videos. While the footage is OK the de-SUF’ing of content is, IMO, an abomination and detracts massively from the workouts. I did Joyride last night and found myself laughing out loud at the storyline and commentary. It made a very hard workout fly by - I’m sure Wahoo will dilute that to the bland, boring content they seem to prefer in the hopes they don’t offend anyone. Making the content easier for newcomers to relate to has actually destroyed the workouts IMHO.
Contrast that with my experiences with OL and Inspiration videos where I am bored to tears and feel very unmotivated. Strangely, I find the Pro-Rides fantastic because of the immersive experience.
Looking ahead, I’d love there to be more sports science (unlikely due to the culls) and AI/adaptive training. I’m mainly using TR this winter and I find these features really helpful and the workouts have had a significant impact in a very short space of time.
Did remastered Do As You’re Told and was sad to see the DS guys no longer have PhDs in suffering…much as the company seem to no longer have a sense of humour. Disappointing.
