OTHER: Improve Documentation
I was quite interested in yesterday's update, specifically this line:
"Added Zen mode for focused training, riding alone in peace."
"This week's release (see below for more details), headlines with more of your ideas, including the new Zen Mode, enabling you to train in peace and focus on your own riding without the distraction of other riders or chat."
But I cannot find any documentation for "Zen Mode" outside of this comment. I have updated my app and searched everywhere for a Zen Mode function, but I don't see it.
When new features are added, instructions should be provided somewhere.
10 votesMany thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
There's no doubt that the documentation can be improved, and we'll make that happen.
In the meantime, Zen mode can be activated from Main Menu > Options > UI Settings and will turn off the display of other riders (and their chat) allowing you to ride in peace and just focus on your own training!

WORKOUTS: Target cadence value in the left Workout Data panel
Add target cadence values for intervals in the left Workout Data panel if they are specified in the workout. This is necessary so that you are prepared for changing cadence in the next interval.

UI/UX: Rethink user experience to ease onboarding and use
A user of Rouvy for years, with dabbles in Zwift, Wahoo System, etc., and I’d largely settled on TrainerRoad for the past few years due to its clarity in use. Simple on screen graphics, informative, etc.
But it does get a bit boring, so I was excited to try the TPVirutal. Oooff. All notes are using iPad Pro with latest version.
- Login screen does not remember me, even when the box is checked. It’s a pain to have to login each time with user name and password. And using biometrics would be nice for login.
- Font selection is brutal. Looks…

FITFILES: Upload local FIT file if connection to server is lost mid-ride
If the connection gets lost during the workout the result is an incomplete upload in Training Peaks main app. Nonetheless the whole workout file is recorded on my device as a fit file.
The solution is to manualy delete the uploaded workout and reupload the file from the datafolder on you system.can you please automate this behaviour???

UI/UX: Power based workouts
Can the target power be larger as its hard to see on small devices.
Also the bar at top of the screen that appears to move at will.... can that instead sit central based on target power and move to the left or right if you drift above or below the target power. Similar to the dial on zwift companion.

MECHANICS: Automatically populate/update training zones when completing a test
It is likely I completely missed something but if so it is likely something that many of the (hopefully) new users will have an issue with if they aren't familiar with TP / TPV and are moving over from another platform.
I am new to Training Peaks and Virtual but have experience on "The Sufferfest". Today I did the Critical Power Test. When I went to look at the zones, the values therein had nothing to do with my test results. I am learning that there are many ways to calculate the zones and this needs to be done by…

WORLD: Avatars - User height information used for rendering taller or smaller rider
Could you implement different sized riders by using the user height data? This could potentially also require size selection for the bikes as well. I mean why should 160cm user look same sized as 210cm user in TPV?
I assume the user height and weight data is already used in calculating the resistance when riding uphill (how about downhill?) but do you also consider the height for the increased body surface area to have an increased wind resistance? Or when pacing a taller rider one could have more/better draft?
14 votesMany thanks for your suggestion, and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
To confirm, the TrainingPeaks Virtual physics engine already takes into account the height and weight of riders, so - to use your example - you will already experience a higher drafting effect when sitting behind a larger rider.
All that is currently missing is the graphical representation of that.

WORKOUTS: Add toggle to turn off power warnings during a workout.
You can turn off cadence warnings but not power warnings. The **** **** sound and text on screen are more warning than I want.

EVENTS: Omnium Racing
Allow for an omnium style event to be ONE large race with sub races within the same event (aka you never leave the player pool). I did my first omnium last night and it was awesome, but I realized because each race in the Omnium is separate there are 3 challenges that we face because of that:
1) bots don’t race in all the races
2) the bots lose their fatigued status
3) the points for each race are calculated manually after all races are concluded instead of being totaled up in game like a standard points race.I think…

UI/UX: Please create a Team Manager’s Dashboard (TMD)
It would be good if team managers (TM) could view additional data on their riders.
• An indication of when the last ride was could help to track down "dead" riders who are not active anymore.
• It would be good if team managers get an info when one of their riders got a DQ. Together with an error code, team managers could then help the riders to identify the problem and take remedial action.
• A team overview with some info graphics (maybe a calendar with events and signups) would make the TMD even better.
Other platforms do very…

MECHANICS: Make position harder to EARN
At the moment I feel like it is TOO easy to move through a crowded peloton and therefore removes a fair bit of the team tactics getting your key rider in the right position within a group.
If you can easily ride through the hoard or riders, then you don’t really need a team as much.
Indoor cycling already removes a lot of the team tactic aspects of cycling (no need to go back to grab waters/etc from the cars), no need to fight people off wheels, and so-on.
I think it would be great to make it near impossible…

EVENTS: Upgrade bots AI for TTT
You need to upgrade your bot tactics in TTT because the bots behave like in a group race.

UI/UX: Current Lap metrics when pressing "L"
Currently we can hit L to make a lap (not a course lap) but other than putting a marker in the fit file its not much use.
I'd like to see lap metrics as data fields for the HUD to go with it like, LAP avg power, LAP NP, Lap avg HR, LAP avg Cadence, Lap time. Like you would on a bike head unit.
Useful for pacing climbs, adhoc intervals etc.

Custom shape colour size Minimap marker / Route marker
We already have the option to change the color of the profile Marker. It would be great if we could also change the minimap marker color, size, and shape. For example, a different-shaped Pin or a circle in a color we can choose. I think this would make the minimap / route profile even easier to interpret at a glance. I’ve added a few examples of alternative shapes.

EVENTS: Set # of bots on group rides
When creating a group ride, would be great to be able to set the # of bots you want added to humans.
Today, # of bots is determined by max # of riders less the # of humans that sign up. But in most cases don’t know how many humans will sign up for a group ride ahead of time, so can have too many bots.

EVENTS: Automated email explain reason for removal from race
Suggest that when a rider is removed from a race (because of failing performance verification), they should get an email explaining why they were removed and ideally with a graph of the relevant section of data. This would create real transparency and help people to diagnose any issues.

EVENTS: Enforce Standing Start For Timetrials
The only races I am interested in are timetrials. I would prefer that flying starts are prohibited as they are in real life events. Please.
