I signed up for the ride, the screen showed me in the group as the countdown to the 12:00 PM start but once the ride began nobody rode around me. Instead I ended up biking the NYC Central Park Loop alone. The right side box showing those around me was empty most of the time with an occasional rider appearing. I saw messages from other bikers in the social ride in German sometimes. Not sure what happened. My jersey says &#8220;Zwift Riders Germany&#8221; too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Where Did The Zwift Riders Germany Social Ride Go?\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-_4MW2XQtPQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Outside the weather was below my 60 degree threshold with an overcast sky and 52 to 53 degrees. Indoors the ceiling fan and floor fan helped to keep me cool but I sweated anyway. Saturday weather will keep me indoors again to Zwift. I hope to be in the ride I sign up for then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With no other bikers around and the social ride gone I decided to ride for an hour. I rode <strong>16.88 miles<\/strong> in 1:00:26. Miles biked this week: <strong>93.48<\/strong>. December stands at <strong>342.13 mile<\/strong>s and YTD <strong>8,012 miles <\/strong>(<strong>7,498<\/strong> road miles + <strong>514<\/strong> virtual )miles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Strava recorded 3 personal records again as I moved through Central Park looking for the social ride people. The course had some hills with one 10% climb appearing three times. I geared down and pedaled slowly up the hill wanting the descent to come soon. I rode around Central Park on a bike several years ago and don&#8217;t remember a hill that steep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a
