1. I'm hooked now.

2. You can still have fun even with a dumb trainer and meter/HRM, and race.

3. The draft is pretty accurate on the power cost/save for groups, but the bunching and positioning is kind of randomized and silly (it pops you out to the side despite being right where you need to be).

4. The TT CdA is a bit off versus the real world, I'm boat loads faster in the real world on the TT bike.

5. Now that I've raced a bit, I don't seem to worry or care that the cheaters exist. It's mental distraction versus staring at a wall doing intervals or listening to Pandora.

6. The combo of Zwift, ZwiftPower, Facebook groups/teams, and Discord make it a pretty immersive experience. Being able to talk tactics and stuff over Discord makes it a lot more fun. Or shout encouragement.
