I feel sick as I write this but I need some racing to stay sharp(there are certain efforts I cant do outside of a race, mentally). Has anyone got zwift working on a PC ? If yes do you use the companion add on? Did you need new bluetooth drivers ? I really dont want to buy an IPAD for something I really dont want. |

Gobi - yes, I have zwift working on a PC, Mac, iPad and iphone. I tend to have the main event running on one, the companion app on one of the others. I didn't need to install anything over and above the zwift software / companion app. Zwift is pretty good. Hope your tears dry! |

I run mine off PC and IPhone, long while since I set it up but I remember - I did need upgraded graphics card - I stuck in one of those Ant+ receivers, which I think receives my watt bike bike data. - then WiFi to connect PC to internet às normal. Certainly no arsing around with Bluetooth drivers and only have the companion app on my phone. I only use the companion app when not riding (to book events mainly) and mine is a simple one way set up no erg mode or anything just the watts and cadence on my Wattbike converting to a Zwift speed. |

No experience of any of these, but did see that RGT is currently free to use due to the virus crisis. cyclingnews.com |

turns out this isnt strictly true Installed and using it for just over 3 weeks now , I'm still not gaming but the racing is pushing me hard and that means I am having to accept the value of the App. Arse :¬) |

2 days short of 11 months and I am level 50 , have done 46 Alpes and plan for 4 more before the year is out. I race 2 or 3 times most weeks and have done a number of 5 hour rides. I guess that says it all really. |
