1. EVENTS: Add staggered start capability for Team Time Trial and Chase Race style events

   As the TPV TTT League participation grows we have more suggested feature enhancements that will increase appeal with the added benefit that they are closely akin to another popular event type: Chase Racing making for potentially broader, high impact enhancements for the community.

   The most requested enhancements for TTT are:
   - Visibility of other teams as we race in a TTT (ghost form or normally appearing avatars)
   - Preferably no draft between teams as one passes another but optional inclusion of inter-team drafting
   - Staggered start times between teams based on team ARR or perhaps organizer chosen gap times
   - TT style bikes, kit, and rider position (visual only no physics)
   - More route options or route start position freedom
   - Advanced bot AI behavior for TTT including rotating pulls
   - Spectator view across all teams in a TTT
   - Continuous live gap reporting rather than only at checkpoints

   Many of those enhancements would enable a popular new event type for TPV: Chase Racing

   • ARR used to form groups based on human (or human+bot) participant ability
   • Start times staggered by predicted ARR that would lead to all groups predicted to finish together
   • Visibility between groups as ghost avatars or normal avatars
   • Assigned chase group number jersey option
   • Drafting between groups allowed or disallowed by organizer choice

2. UI/UX: "climb pro" like feature

   The profile of the course is shown on the bottom, but its hard to evaluate the difficulty of the next slope and the actual length. It would be great if some pop-up information would appear 30 seconds before the start of the climb indicating mean slope % and length of the climb.

4. WORLD: Terrain - Graphics inspired by a real world cycling destinations

   As you create new maps, have them inspired with terrain and visuals like real world cycling hotspots. For example, Mallorca, Belgium, France, Italy, England, Southern California. Realistic inspired rather than video game silliness.

7. MECHANICS: Increase Climbing Rating Importance for Races with Significant Climbs

   Summary:
   When calculating event ratings for races that include categorized climbs (Cat 4, Cat 3, Cat 2, Cat 1, or HC), the algorithm should place substantially more weight on a rider's climbing rating rather than relying heavily on TT and Endurance ratings. This would create more balanced competition in hilly/mountainous races.

   Problem:
   Currently, the event rating system appears to favor Time Trial and Endurance abilities in any longer race, even in races with significant climbing. This leads to several issues: Climbers with lower overall ratings but strong climbing abilities are placed in lower pens than appropriate. Larger/heavier riders with strong TT/Endurance ratings are placed in higher pens despite climbing limitations. Race predictions become inaccurate (predicting top-5 finishes for riders who realistically can't achieve this on climbs). Some riders avoid climbing-heavy races due to poor pen placement.

   Proposed Solution:
   While I understand some weighting already exists, I propose a more substantial emphasis on climbing rating. Significantly increase the importance of climbing rating whenever a race includes categorized climbs. Use the established climb categorization formula (distance × gradient²) to determine how much weight to give climbing ability:

   600+ points – hors catégorie

   300-600 points – 1st category

   150-300 points – 2nd category

   75-150 points – 3rd category

   Up to 75 points – 4th category

   I would advocate that races with a cat 3 or higher climb, climbing rating should be the primary or sole factor. Any race with a cat 4 climb it should still be the primary factor.

   Example: The first climb in the Marathon route: 9.9km long and gradient of 5.7%. (9.95.75.7)=321 or Category 1

   Benefits:
   More accurate race predictions and event ratings. Improved racing experience as riders compete against others with similar climbing abilities. More participation in climbing-focused events. Better bot selection for riders to train and race with.
   For races with multiple climbs, the cumulative impact should be considered when determining how heavily to weight climbing ability in the event rating.

   Summary:
   When calculating event ratings for races that include categorized climbs (Cat 4, Cat 3, Cat 2, Cat 1, or HC), the algorithm should place substantially more weight on a rider's climbing rating rather than relying heavily on TT and Endurance ratings. This would create more balanced competition in hilly/mountainous races.

9. EVENTS: Custom event pacebot

   What if you could customise a pace bot... no rubber band but any other bots added to the event stick with the pacer.

   Options for the bot:

   1. progression - ramps up over the duration of the event
   2. Workout - follows a workout from your collection (this is the gamified workout ticked off)
   3. Climber - hit climbs hard and recovery on descents / flat
   4. Sprints - ride easy with intermittent sprints
   5. Fartlek - random intervals of varying length and intensity

   Sure other people can add some more ideas. Weight and FTP of the bot should also be customisable to match your workout needs.

10. UI/UX: w/kg

    I understand that you don't want to show w/kg for the riders around you and I understand your reasoning. However, on my bike computer in real life I have my power data set to display as w/kg NOT a power number. It would be nice to have this as an option in the HUD display of my data that others can't see. I think others have also moved away from viewing a power number and instead use w/kg. Again it would be nice to have this as a power option in the displays that are private to the user.

    Many thanks for this more nuanced suggestion, and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.

    We've deliberately not declined this one and will add it to the list of suggestions to consider in more detail. Whilst the general position remains that we deliberately choose not to publish this metric, it potentially could be displayed for yourself only (and be blank when viewing other riders) as an option in the custom UI.

11. HUB: Apple TV Bluetooth connection limitation

    Are there plans to introduce a phone app that can act as a sensor bridge to get past the Apple TV limitation of only being able to pair two devices? Have an older smart trainer with no cadence sensor built-in so have to forego the HRM pairing.

13. FITFILES: Stop Virtual from auto-saving to TP account.

    After a ride Virtual asks me if I want to discard the ride (I assume to stop it syncing to my TP account) but it ignores me and auto-saves to TP anyway. Then when a sync my watch to Garmin Connect (which is linked to TP) I have two workouts in my account for the one ride. It's easy enough to delete one but my TP account is also linked to WKO as well. The discard my ride button is ignoring me.

    - achievements
    - some bonuses for riding through gates
    - live ranking of segments
    - checkboxes / stats of completed routes
    - ranks / levels

    Many thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.

    In general, some degree of gamification can be good, but we need to be careful not to go too far - for example, we would not want to do anything that encouraged an athlete to train when it would be better for them to be resting etc.

    It's therefore an area we will certainly be looking at, but at this stage it's unclear what changes we may or may not make.

15. UI/UX: Exit button in the Hub

    I tried TPV for the first time after looking around it a bit. Seems the Hub is the central point for things to happen. You enter your activity from there and then end up back there afterwards. Big problem for me was I couldn't find where to quit the thing. There is no obvious easy to see button to Exit!!! First few times I ended up force quitting because I couldn't find how to get out. Eventually I found the save and exit button hidden at the end of all the other stuff in Options!!! This is so difficult to find and in such an out of the way place you are going to catch a lot of people out with this one!! Put a large easy to see Quit button on the main Hub interface somewhere where everyone would expect to find one please!!!

16. UI/UX: Bot Identification

    You recently declined a persons suggestion (on/off toggle to identity bots)

    This after event scenario does zero to help during a group ride, event, etc. to be able to chat with other riders, ask questions, etc. We need to know Bots from real humans DURING the activity.
    Today's group ride, several riders seemed frustrated to who was a real human and who wasn't. This was a group ride, not a race, so being able to 'talk' is something leisurely riders like to do.
    It is hard to ask a rider to come back to the group or help them to know how to handle a hill or chase, etc. when that 'rider' may simply be a Bot off the back or a Bot attacking out front (yes, Passive Bots will surge ahead).
    Please reconsider have some way to tell who is real and who is a Bot.
    Thanks

20. UI/UX: ATV UI Friendly

    Currently UI is designed for computer or mobile device, but probably favors a keyboard and mouse interface more than touch due to all the options and drop down menus. This request is specific for Apple TV UI with the remote.

    Problem statement: Current UI is not easy to navigate using the Apple remote.

    Suggestion: A simplify UI for Apple TV remote user such that it is easier to navigate. Blockiness Icons, carousel scroll, etc.

    This simplification of UI can also have limited features such as only riding features (Ride, workout, joining events) and removal of the more complex event creation, team management, and all the other advanced options in settings and profile.
