    Welcome to 1989, Zwifters!

    It’s April Fools’ Day, and you know what that means – the game team at Zwift is going to have a little fun!

    This is our 6th April Fools’ Day on Zwift, and each year the HQ has come up with something fun for the community. Last year we were burning rubber, and the year before that it was Paperboy. 2017 we had big heads, 2016 gave us the old-timey effect, and 2015 we rode big wheels on Jarvis.

    This year we’re going back to 1989 with rad neon kits, brightly-painted steel bikes, and tube socks.

    Use the color slider to change your frame’s colors, and enjoy the silliness. We all need a bit of a laugh these days!
