Finally figured out how to capture Wahoo Kickr power data with my Apple Watch during Zwift rides. Still frustrating that imported workouts don’t keep power, but Apple Fitness is becoming my cycling source of truth. Tour of Zwift Stage 2 done. 💪🚴♂️

I tried out #Rouvy this morning using my #ZwiftRide doing the unbound gravel course. Interesting. I do plan to explore other rides on Rouvy, which might be interesting for visualizing different routes.
