My Zwift avatar is a jerk

First world problems in a COVID-19 world: my Zwift avatar never waves to anyone. When I see folks stopped at the side of the virtual road my avatar never stops to ask if everything's okay.

That's interesting because mine stops all the time and slows way down on ascents.

ROTFL. Does your avatar buy coffee at the turn around?

Not a Zwift user but a Tacx trainer app user and I was doing the Amsterdam city tour. I had to scream at all the tourists that were stepping in front of my bike. Honestly one of the most frustrating training videos I have encountered on that site. As, for other cyclist I just wave in real life but they never seem to wave back. The price you pay for indoor training.

Does it ding you if you don't brake like old driving class simulators?
