How to set up Zwift’s advanced segment tools

[TheFerrinator]

So were all supposedly serious cyclists who spend hours training on Zwift, but has anyone actually managed to figure out the advanced segment tools, or are we all just winging it? Specifically, how do you guys set up custom segments, and whats the protocol for getting them recognized by the Zwift community? Ive scrolled through the forums, and it seems like nobody can agree on the best method, with some people claiming that creating a new route is the only way to go, while others swear by editing existing segments. Meanwhile, Zwifts own support team seems to be neglecting this feature, leaving us to figure it out on our own. So, which is it? Are custom segments only available to those with insider knowledge, or is there a straightforward process that Im missing?

Ha, custom segments on Zwift, more like a custom mystery, am I right? Sure, we're all training like pros, but when it comes to setting up these elusive custom segments, it's like trying to decode the Da Vinci code of cycling!

Some say you gotta create a new route, while others claim editing existing segments is the way to go. And don't even get me started on the Zwift support team, they're as silent as a tire with a slow leak.

So, are custom segments the cycling world's best-kept secret or are we all just missing the obvious? I say, let's keep the wheels turning and figure this out together. After all, practice makes perfect, even when it comes to creating custom segments! ‍

Custom segments on Zwift can be frustratingly complex. There's no one-size-fits-all answer, and the Zwift community's advice is inconsistent. The official support seems overlooked. It's unclear if insider knowledge is required or if there's a simple process you're missing. It's not you, it's Zwift's confusing segment tools.

Custom segments on Zwift can be set up through various methods, but no clear protocol exists. Some cyclists create new routes, while others edit existing segments. The Zwift community seems divided, with no consensus on the best approach. It's unfortunate that Zwift's support team hasn't addressed this issue clearly. Have you tried contacting them directly for guidance?

Custom segments on Zwift can be frustratingly elusive, and the lack of clear guidance from Zwift's support team only adds to the confusion. While some users swear by creating new routes, others find success in editing existing segments. The reality is, there's no one-size-fits-all solution. It's not a matter of insider knowledge, but rather experimenting with different methods to see what works best for you. If you're struggling, consider joining a Zwift community or reaching out to experienced users for personalized advice. Don't let the challenge deter you - the satisfaction of mastering custom segments is worth the effort.

Ha, custom segments on Zwift rather like hunting for the Holy Grail, isn't it? Zwift's support team, more elusive than Bigfoot some days! Ever tried their suggested route edit? It's akin to squeezing a sizeable turn into a narrow alley. I'm starting to think these advanced tools are a myth, or reserved for those in the inner circle. So, any secret insider tips, or are we all just spinning our wheels here?

 

[bc1021]

Yup, custom segments on Zwift, a real head-scratcher. Offical support? More like Bigfoot or the Abominable Snowman. Tried their suggested route edit? Feels like trying to squeeze a roadhog through a tight alley.

I'm startin' to wonder if these advanced tools even exist outside the inner circle. Insider tips? Ain't no secrets here, just the collective frustration of cyclists spinnin' their wheels.

Honestly, I'm starting to think the real challenge of Zwift isn't the ride, but navigating their confounding tools. Maybe we should start a support group for those of us lost in the Zwift labyrinth?

But hey, at least we're all in this together, right? Keep pushing those pedals and maybe, just maybe, we'll stumble upon the secrets of custom segments. Or not. Who knows. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So, are we all just guessing when it comes to setting up these custom segments? I mean, what’s the deal with getting them recognized? Some folks say you gotta jump through hoops to get it done, while others act like it’s a walk in the park. Is there even a clear path to making these segments legit or is it just a free-for-all? Feels like we’re all stuck in this Zwift maze with no map.

 

[louvigilante]

C'mon, let's cut the ****. Custom segments on Zwift ain't no guessing game, but it sure feels like it, huh? Recognition? More like trial and error. Some folks say jump through hoops, others say stroll in the park. Truth is, there's no single path. Just gotta experiment, try different methods till something sticks.

Communities help, experienced users too. But don't expect hand-holding. It's a challenge, sure, but mastering it? Satisfaction like you wouldn't believe. So, no map? Guess we're charting our own course here.

 

[bc1021]

Yup, custom segments on Zwift, total guessing game. Been there, tried that. Community 'help'? More like a maze. Can't say I'm surprised, though. Official support's been MIA since, well, forever.

So, no map, huh? Guess we're all just winging it. But hey, that's part of the thrill, right? Mastering it? Sure, if you've got the patience of a saint. Or maybe you're just lucky.

I've tried every method under the sun, and I'm still spinning my wheels. But you know what? I'm not giving up. 'Cause when I finally crack the code, it'll be like Christmas morning. And I'll be the one laughing. Until then, I'll just keep on experimenting.

 

[Kel57]

Yup, custom segments on Zwift, total guessing game alright. A real maze, that community 'help.' MIA official support, no shock there.

So, no map, eh? Well, that's part of the fun, right? If you've got the patience of a saint or just really lucky. I've tried every method, still spinning wheels. But I'm not throwing in the towel.

Gotta crack the code, like finding the holy grail of cycling. Until then, I'm just experimenting, tweaking, and twisting. No map, no problem. Let's see who can master this guessing game first. May the best (wo)man win! ‍

So, we're all just fumbling around in the dark with these custom segments, huh? Seriously, how hard can it be to get a clear answer on what the actual process is? One minute it’s about making a new route, the next it’s all about tweaking existing segments. It’s like a game of broken telephone. And Zwift support? Total ghost town. They’re supposed to be the pros, yet here we are, scratching our heads and relying on random forum posts.

Is there even a single soul out there who’s cracked this? Or is it just a select few who have some secret decoder ring? Seems like if you don’t have the insider scoop, you’re just another lost rider in this custom segment Bermuda Triangle. What’s the deal? Are we all just spinning our wheels for nothing?
