This July, the Aussie Hump Day Ride Team (AHDR) is launching their inaugural Winter Tours. Aimed at Aussies with a 7:10pm AEST timeslot (that’s 5:10am EDT and 9:10am UTC), there are Women’s Tour events on four consecutive Monday nights starting July 1 and Open Tour events on four consecutive Tuesday nights starting July 2nd.
The Tours are separate category racing where each grade gets to race its own race. With General, Sprint, and KQOM Classifications plus prizes from AHDR Partners Giant and JetBlack, the Tour has plenty to offer everyone!
Note: prizes are available to Australian residents only due to shipping costs.
Route Descriptions
The Tours feature four iconic Zwift race courses in Watopia and Scotland. The first week kicks off with a short but fast 19km course in Watopia on the Ocean Lava Cliffside Loop where one climb will make or break the race!
The following week, the Tour heads to the Sand and Sequoias course for another short and fast race of 20km which features the first Sprint and KQOM points of the Tour through the desert and Titans Grove Reverse climb.
Week 3 is the Queen Stage on the Sugar Cookie course, a 39km course which features plenty of points opportunities for the sprinters in the race for Green! One climb up to the Bridge of disappearing watts before a right-hand turn along the cliffside and a downhill jungle finish!
The last week is one for the all-rounders with Scotland’s The Muckle Yin providing plenty of opportunities to grab points or for a breakaway to go for glory!
