This weekend we’ve got several fundraiser rides, as well as special races and group rides.
Special thanks to Jesper at ZwiftHacks with his Events app which provides powerful event filtering tools that help us create this list each week.
The Dempsey Challenge
Join Patrick “McDreamy” Dempsey on September 26 for his first-ever Zwift group event. Founded in 2008, the Dempsey Center provides support services to those managing the impact of cancer. This includes fitness and movement, nutrition planning and cooking skills, and group and one-on-one counseling. All services are provided at no cost thanks to fundraising efforts and donations from the community.
If 25,000 Zwifters join an event across the weekend, or if $25k is raised, Zwift will unlock an additional $25,000 donation to the Dempsey Foundation to help them reach their goal of $1.5million. Ride and run events are being held at multiple times over the weekend. Riders will unlock the Dempsey Challenge kit!
A suggested donation of $20 is suggested. To donate, follow this link – https://zwift.com/dempseychallenge
