I find that eliminates 50-70% of the riders in most rides.
Yeah, I got my first "win" from zwiftpower, but it sort of takes the joy out of it knowing that, in reality, I was 10th out of 30 or so. Not sure if everyone in front of me was over the power limit or just didn't bother to register with zwiftpower, but they had me as first out of 6 or so. Honestly, the fact that the ride resulted in a new estimated FTP was more exciting (in that neither really means anything, but at least the FTP thing tells me I got a good workout) than "winning" when everyone in front of me was dq'd or not playing the same game.
