6.      Pairing: Improved device detection and connectivity for ANT+ and BLE devices, including the bug that caused power devices to be unpaired when a heartrate monitor is connected.

7.      Pairing: Fixed the bugs that didn’t clear old devices when pairing a new device.

8.      Physics Optimized: Speeds will be precomputed for faster math.

9.      Downloads: Cleaned up and removed duplicated assets.

10.  Fixed animals that were appearing on the road.

11.  Cadence reconfigured to show more accurately.


1.      Cornering Physics Improvement: We’ve refined cornering mechanics. What are your thoughts on the cornering dynamics?

2.      Yellow Speed Signs: The yellow speed signs now match the metric settings in your profile. Do you find this helpful for improving your cornering technique?

3.      Activity Settings: Activity creators can now specify Play mode and Bike type for each activity in the playlist. For Tuesday’s playlist we will be in Sim, then Flow and Sim for the final race. How did this change impact your experience?

4.      Autobraking Adjustment: The Moderate autobraking setting has been tweaked. If you stop pedaling before a corner, autobraking will assist you. Watch the Speedometer—if you see red between Speed and Power, the brakes are being applied. What are your thoughts on this assist feature?

5.      Animals Added to Maps: We’ve introduced animals to the maps. Did you spot any, and did they add interest to your ride?

Other Updates:

·         License Progression: Now includes points scored for Cornering and Drafting activities.

·         Simplified Assist Menu: We’ve streamlined the Assist menu for easier use.

·         Race Village:

o   Fixed floating assets.

o   The village will now start after the finish line.

·         Additional Logging: Enhanced logging for ANT+ and XP progression issue


1.      The physics for cornering were improved. What are your observations?

2.      The yellow speed signs will match the metric selection you have made in your profile. Does that help you improve your cornering?

3.      Activity creators can specify Play mode and bike type for each activity in the playlist. How did that feel to you?

4.      Autobraking was tweaked for the Moderate setting. If you stop pedaling before a corner autobraking will assist you. Watch the Speedometer, between Speed and Power, if you see red that means the brakes are being applied. How did you feel about that assist change?

5.      Animals were added to the maps. Let us know if you spotted them and if they added interest to the map, you were riding.

6.      Other updates:

a.      License progression includes points scored in activities for Cornering and Drafting.

b.      Simplified Assist menu.

c.      Race village:

                                                              i.      Fixed the floating assets.

                                                             ii.      Will start after the finish line.

d.      Added additional logging for ANT+ and XP progression issues.
