I've been doing the same race each week. I was 3rd last week, but this week I seem to have been DQed for being too powerful as I both lost weight and beat my previous FTP. The guy who I pipped on the line was credited with the win.
How's that fair? Surely NEXT week I should be DQed if I enter C again? That'd be like DQing Liverpool for winning too many matches or Federer for being too good at tennis. I didn't know I was going to ride a PB before I entered, did I?
Second time ever I won anything on a bike and I've been swindled!
Zwift's W/kg categories are just bullshit. Enjoy the race.
They are on flat races yes.
I'm an A cat (just) meaning that in most races 'fast' B cats beat me... Clearly you need to improve your sandbagging talents 😂 Or as thecaptain says, just enjoy the race 😀
Well I'm not actually upset of course, it's just a bit daft on their part.
I'm calling it a win, and even though ZP has now ignored the race and it still says I can enter C, I will go for B next time.
As for sandbagging talents, I beat the guy who was credited with the win by a wheel, I can't make it any closer than that 🙂
Some events apply different rules. It may be that the organiser has strict DQ set for going over cat limits. Which event was it?

It may have been the organiser who you beat by a wheel
even though ZP has now ignored the race and it still says I can enter C...
Suggests Nixie is spot on, or you had no hr monitor, double recording, wore the wrong coloured bib shorts for your weigh in video or whatever the race organiser stipulated.
