Zwift and a dumb trainer

Submitted by pffddspc on Mon, 11/29/2021 - 4:48pm

I got the Zwift app working on my computer with cadence and speed.  I see that there are now such things as smart trainers, like the Wahoo Kicker Snap.  Do I need that to make Zwift worthwhile?  Trying to figure this out.  So far, far I have only spent a few dollars on an ANT stick that will allow zwift to pick up my ancient Garmin 1.0 speed and cadence sensor.

Andy's high end bike shop, Yellow Jersey, was in Madison, WI, for many years and is now 22 miles north of it. It is truly a classic, like no other shop I know. It sells pro and custom bikes...but even better it keeps alive names of high end manufacturers from what I regard as the Golden Age of Cycling, Part II.

Man attacked on the Manhattan Bridge bike path last Thursday

Did you hear that a man riding his bike over the Manhattan Bridge back to his home in Little Italy last Thursday night (Nov 18), biked into some purposely placed chicken wire, was thrown off his bike and beaten by 3 men? He was badly injured but, thankfully, managed to escape.
