🤝 Catrina’s Ladies Social Ride

✅ Women Only ✅ Beginner Friendly ✅ Legacy Leader
Catrina has been leading this social ride for years, and it’s a friendly place for new and experienced Zwifting ladies! This week’s ride is a 60-minute event at 1.5-2.5 W/kg on Watopia’s short Temple Trek route. You’ll finish the route before the event is even half over, and it may be an adventure to see where the game routes everyone after that!

🥇 DIRT Dadurday Chase Race

✅ Unique Event
It’s been a while since we’ve featured a Chase Race, so here’s one that’s been around for years. Every Saturday, Team DIRT (Dads Inside Riding Trainers) hosts a chase race where the goal of the race is to have the riders in each category work together to fend off the riders in the other categories from catching. The lower the category, the higher the starting advantage will be.

How We Make Our Picks
We choose each weekend’s Notable Events based on a variety of factors including:
- Is the event unique/innovative in some way?
- Are celebrities (pro riders, etc) attending/leading?
- Are signup counts already high, meaning the event is extra-popular?
- Does the ride include desirable unlocks or prizes?
- Does the event appeal to ladies on Zwift? (We like to support this under-represented group!)
- Is it for a good cause?
- Is it just plain crazy (extra long races, world record attempts, etc)?
- Is it a long-running, popular weekly event with a dedicated leader who deserves a shout out?
In the end, we want to call attention to events that are extra-special and therefore extra-appealing to Zwifters. If you think your event qualifies, comment below with a link/details and we may just include it in an upcoming post!
