    New XP Bonuses

    Zwift has just replaced the achievement badges you could formerly earn for completing every race in a ZRacing series with XP bonuses. You will now earn a 1000 XP bonus for completing stage 1, then additional bonuses for each stage thereafter.

    Zwift says you will “earn up to 1500 XP in a four-week series or 2000 XP in a five-week series.”

    GC Leaderboards

    Zwift’s web-based leaderboards are used for tracking the monthly GC competition for the ZRacing series. Unlike past years, no ZwiftPower registration or use is necessary.

    Access the ZRacing leaderboards at zwift.com/racing/zracing >

    Your GC ranking is based on your best finishing time for each stage, and you can race each stage more than once to try for a better time.

    Category Options

    Zwift schedules three different flavors of ZRacing events in order to encourage “Fairer, more competitive racing for everyone.” They each use different racing score ranges for categorization and are titled Advanced, Range 1, and Range 2. Click banners below to see upcoming events for each:
