Winter Worlds Virtual Racing
Sunday June 5th 8.30am

What is Virtual Racing at Winter Worlds?

 Virtual racing for everyone who is on the Zwift Platform
5 different marks [small bunches]  all starting at 8.30 am: with the Leader [A Rouler Mann] signaling when it's your bunches turn to start racing. 

The idea is that you work together riding as fast as you can attempting to stay together so you can go as fast as you can so you'll either catch the front group and not be caught by the faster riders that have started after you.

How it works

Enter Online

When you enter you will get your estimated mark that you are capable of riding off. 

Follow Alex on Zwift

Follow Alex Rouler Mann [as if he is a real Rouler] so he can invite you to the Racing meetup.

Accept the Meetup Invite

Join Early

Join and be on Zwift before 8.25 am as the platform sometimes does not let you join, but at 8.25 a screen will pop up and you'll be able to join.
