    It’s a big weekend on Zwift, with so many different events to try. But like a breakaway up a mountain, I got it covered!


    TdZ Stage 2: Mountain Madness

    Stage 2 of Tour de Zwift for cyclists has us tackling climbs of various lengths, across the different worlds, with the long ride tackling the Alpe du Zwift! If you have never attempted this climb, there’s no better way to do it than with hundreds of fellow Zwifters to support you.

    Various dates and times

    Andre Greipel Retirement Ride

    Andre Greipel has retired from pro cycling after a career spanning 16 years which included victories at all the Grand Tours.  Andre is no stranger to Zwift, and I have ridden with him numerous times, in various group rides. So it only seems fitting that he is joining Zwift for a ride to celebrate his career. 

    With over 5000 people signed up already, Andre is going to lead the group on four laps of the Champs-Élysées, a course he won on in the 2015 Tour de France. You’ll unlock the Fight ALS jersey in this ride, so be sure to read the ride details to learn how to join Andre in supporting the fight against ALS!

    Saturday, January 15 @ 10am GMT/5am EST

    The Le Col Big Day In

    Le Col are tackling the Mega Pretzel, 111km’s of road that takes in the Epic KOM as well as the Jungle.

    It’s an Open Category ride, so some people will race it, whilst others will keep it steady.  If you haven’t completed this route or fancy a challenge, then this will be a good event to do.

    3R Ultra Endurance Academy – 12 Hour Challenge

    In September I wrote about the 3R 12/24-Hour Ultra Endurance Academy – the day of reckoning has arrived for the first part of the challenge.  On Saturday, members of the Academy are going to undertake 12 hours of cycling.  The event starts with their standard Saturday Endurance event and riders will stay on after it is completed clocking up the remaining hours. Read more about Saturday’s event >

    Team 3R are undertaking this to raise sponsorship for the charity World Bicycle Relief. 

    The ride is hosted on the Tempus Fugit course.

    Castelli Unlimited

    Castelli are launching a new “Unlimited” event, that will run until the end of March, every other week.

    The “Unlimited” event has the Castelli Team leading a group ride over the longer routes.  Sunday’s ride sees the Quatch Quest route being tackled and will take between 2-2.5 hours.
