    Notable Zwift Events for the Weekend of December 31-January 1

    Saturday marks the end of the 2022 Rapha Festive 500, and now it’s time to focus on the new year. This week’s selection will help you start off strong!

    The second Zwift Fondo also takes place this weekend, but this list will highlight the notable community events, as the fondo has already received a good amount of attention.


    🤝 Vocsnors PRL Fondo p/b KISS

    Every week, former hour world record holder Victor Campenaerts leads a group ride where riders can join and ask him questions in his live stream. This week, Victor will be helping riders complete the longest route in Zwift: the famed PRL Full course in London. This course will likely take riders 4-6 hours depending on their pace.

    Victor will be holding a brisk pace at 3 w/kg on the flats and 4 w/kg on the climbs, likely completing the route in less than 5 hours. This is a great opportunity for riders to complete this iconic route in as little time as possible!

    Saturday, Dec 31 @ 9am UTC/4am EST

    🤝 Cillian Kelly New Year’s Day Watopia Flat

    GCN’s own Cillian Kelly will be leading a social group ride to celebrate the start of the new year. (Cillian manages statistics for GCN, and was the Zero to Hero rider on the GCN channel. Check out the Zero to Hero series as Cillian tackles a Tour de France stage.)

    The group ride is open-paced, so riders are free to go at whatever pace pleases them. This 45-minute group ride will take place over the Watopia Flat Route. Riders who complete the event will also receive the GCN kit in Zwift.

    Special settings: jersey unlock

    🤝 Pas Normal Studios Winter Resolution Zwift Ride

    Pas Normal, a Copenhagen-based cycling brand, is hosting a social new year ride as a way for riders to unlock the new Pas Normal in-game cycling kit. So far, this is looking like a pretty big group ride with 150+ riders already signed up! These events will be happening every Sunday throughout the month of January.

    The leader will be holding a steady 2 w/kg and up to 2.5 w/kg on the climbs. The ride takes place over 90 minutes on Suki’s Playground, so riders will likely complete ~4 laps of the course. Riders must complete the full 90 minutes in order to receive the kit.

    Special settings: jersey unlock

    🤝Team Italy Endurance Ride w/Saverio Addante

    Up for a challenge? Team Italy is hosting an endurance ride over 40 laps of the Volcano Circuit with Saverio Addante, a well-known endurance Zwifter. Saverio has many notable indoor achievements, including riding 1000km non-stop, several veverests (virtual everests), and over 120,000 km logged on Zwift. There are numerous badges that riders can unlock on this ride since Zwift offers a badge for the first completion of 5, 10, and 25 laps. Many riders will also achieve the 100-kilometer and 100-mile badge. 

    There will be a lead and sweep, but participants can go at whatever pace they would like. The ride will likely take upward of 5 hours, so be prepared for a long time in the saddle! Riders must complete the full duration for the Team Italy in-game kit.

    Special settings: kit unlock, double draft

    🤝 New Years FUNdo

    Join Saskatchewan, a Canadian cycling club for a metric century around the newest expansion to the Makuri Islands, Urukazi. This ride is meant to be a fun social ride where riders can enjoy the company while ticking off some mileage to start the year. Leaders will not be present in this ride, but a relatively high attendance is expected.

    The ride features four different categories, allowing riders to ride with a group around their pace. Over the course of the 100km, riders will complete several laps of the Island Hopper course.
