Using the companion app I found a group ride for a change that was a good distance (19.9 miles) and allowed me enough time to get everything ready. The route was a new for me, the Fine and Sandy in the Makuri Islands world. 3 laps plus a short lead-in looked good. It went downhill as I waited for the ride to start. My phone (a Pixel 7 Pro) would not stay connected to my WiFi causing the sensors to not register in the desktop program. I tried to get it connected but it would start then fail. When it disconnected I stopped moving in Zwift. The group ride didn&#8217;t stop though. I switched to using my computer&#8217;s Bluetooth connection and that worked. But by then I was 14 minutes behind everyone else. I didn&#8217;t quit though. Riding by myself I made the 3 laps and set some Strava results coming in last for the group. I got the route badge too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I rode 19.93 miles and climbed 768 feet, 5 feet more than the event said. Outside it was 54 degrees, cloudy and the wind was from the east at 9 mph. Below my weather threshold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Sandy and Fine route. From <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/zwiftinsider.com\/route\/fine-and-sandy\/\">ZwiftInsider.com<\/a><\/strong>, &#8220;Sort of the little brother to <a href=\"https:\/\/zwiftinsider.com\/route\/island-outskirts\/\">Island Outskirts<\/a>, Fine and Sandy is a shorter circuit of the Urukazi island complex.&#8221; There was a .1 mile lead-in and each lap was 6.6 miles. The climbing mostly came on two small hills on each lap. I probably should&#8217;ve switched to a gravel bike because a lot of the roads were not paved but I stuck with the S-Works and Dura Ace wheels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This week I rode everyday but Friday when I worked on my Jeep installing side steps. I thought I had enough time after installing them but I ran into bad traffic on the trip to the hardware store for some bolts to finish up. 5 days riding Zwift and 1 riding outside totaled 127.75 miles. My year to date mileage is 9,219. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/12-18-2022-Week-Ended-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"349\" data-attachment-id=\"60850\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/12-18-2022-week-ended-bike-rides-summary\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/12-18-2022-Week-Ended-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?fit=1838%2C801&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1838,801\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"12-18-2022 Week Ended Bike Rides Summary\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;12-18-2022 Week Ended Bike Rides Summary&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;12-18-2022 Week Ended Bike Rides Summary&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/12-18-2022-Week-Ended-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?fit=600%2C261&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/12-18-2022-Week-Ended-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?fit=800%2C349&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/12-18-2022-Week-Ended-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?resize=800%2C349\" alt=\"12-18-2022 Week Ended Bike Rides Summary\" class=\"wp-image-60850\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/12-18-2022-Week-Ended-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?resize=800%2C349&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/12-18-2022-Week-Ended-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?resize=600%2C261&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/12-18-2022-Week-Ended-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?resize=640%2C279&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/12-18-2022-Week-Ended-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?resize=1536%2C669&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.texbiker.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/12-18-2022-Week-Ended-Bike-Rides-Summary.jpg?w=1838&amp;ssl=1 1838w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">12-18-2022 Week Ended Bike Rides Summary<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Strava medals: <strong>PR<\/strong>\u00a0on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/8264748090\/segments\/3039675102804301504\">Fine and Sandy<\/a>\u00a0(27:25), <strong>2nd fastest time<\/strong>\u00a0on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/8264748090\/segments\/3039675102803313344\">Fine and Sandy<\/a>\u00a0(27:55), <strong>2nd fastest time<\/strong>\u00a0on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/8264748090\/segments\/3039675102803063488\">Mech Isle Climb CW<\/a>\u00a0(3:24), <strong>3rd fastest time<\/strong>\u00a0on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/8264748090\/segments\/3039675102801090240\">Fine and Sandy<\/a>\u00a0(28:45).
