Not always. I spent a few minutes trying to find why they are deforesting a section along the Brown Squirrel loop. No luck. 
I did find the listing for the lot next to the Brown Squirrel. Investment opportunity!

I did the "Half Monty" last night, and got somewhat disappointing results. Two reasons, I think - the last time I did a ramp test on Zwift, I concentrated on chasing down other riders, rather than the discomfort or wondering how long I'd last, or how soon I could stop(which is probably exactly the wrong attitude!), so I need a distraction other than the promise of more pain in the immediate future, as represented by the ramp and the numbers.
The other thing is, I really think I need the kind of warmup time trialists do, where you push hard enough to drive your heart rate up at least to the range you expect to hit. From previous experience, it seems like the first time I build up to 170, if i go there gradually, I feel distinctly unwell, whereas if I've pushed up to that range quickly at least once, I barely notice it. SO, my warmup should include a couple hard efforts to push my HR into the high 160s if not the low 170s while also not burning all my matches.
So, does anyone know how to set up to run Zwift and Systm at the same time? Can they both read power off the trainer, HR and cadence, but without controlling the resistance on the trainer, while Systm reads the same things but also controls the trainer?

If you had a power meter in addition to a smart trainer, and two computers/tablets/phones, I'm pretty sure that you'd be able to do what you propose, but I think you're out of luck, otherwise.

If you wanna relive the good ol' days before the Brown Squirrel and before the Dead Horse Lake Golf Course, this is how it looked during the Summer of Love

Things I missed out on report:
Flying Lufthansa in the '60s. Cured meat and beers, it's the only way to fly.

As luck would have it, though, The Younger Boy is finally getting a new computer, so he's giving me his old one, so I COULD set that up for Zwift and run SYSTM on the laptop. Not sure it will all be ready before my 14 day free trial ends, though.

How come ice fishing isn’t a sport? No sponsors?

I will ride a bike again today. To visit friends in the next village over. I don't know if my extreme tiredness yesterday is still the aftermath of COVID or the aftermath of being totally out of shape
