It's the same with Box Hill actually. The best/most popular segment irl is 2.2km and ends as soon as it flattens out (or the crosswalk from the car park to the cafe at the latest), compared to Zwift's which goes all the way to the monument around the corner. The real (most common) start is at the first 90 degree right hand turn also
I did it this morning, but I played the draft. I rode at 150w to the base of the climb so there were 500 people in front of me and then rode the climb at 325 for 19 minutes like an FTP test. It was 65% of the way up the hill before I ran out of riders to draft.
Durian isn't a hard person to beat. If you lose to him, change your diet. Watch his videos on nutrition. He knows that. I support his nutritional output. Otherwise durian sucks. 😂. Want help beating him? Let's get it. I'll help.
Very disappointing seeing all those random guys passing you especially Morita who got up by double digits...I have to look for a new hero...Maybe the Norwegian guy, he seems like he has a lot of watts to spear...I wish I would have never seen this video, I am so disappointed...Good try though.
Dude you are definitely climbing Jedi! Great work
Thank you!! Nasty climb this 😅
That was a perfect 20min FTP test :D Nice strong effort!
I really didn’t want to do a ftp test but here we are 😂
Great ride Gerben! Nice to see you able to stay in the top 10 pretty frequently. Keep up the good work.
Thank you! Will do :D

Why Zwift does this I don't know. It shouldn't be that hard to match the "official" segment on Strava. Right?
What a beast, Gerben! 💪 👹 🚴 It does feel like, each week, you are getting closer to returning to your best 👊
I hope so Simon! Thank you for your support!!

Great strategy! This climb is indeed very draftable in places :)
