    This weekend’s big events are the double XP Zwift Unlocked rides, but we’re also seeing some really popular races popping up from community organizers. See our picks below!

    🤝🥇 Zwift Unlocked Stage 1

    ✅ Double XP  ✅ Popular  ✅ New Routes  ✅ Jersey Unlock

    The new Zwift Unlocked series kicked off this week, with double XP, double powerups, and fresh routes. Stage 1 ends this weekend, and riders have a choice between a long ride on Tropic Rush (41.9km, 326m) or a shorter ride (or race) on Dùn Dash (12.4km, 139m). Runners are on the new Highland Run (6.8km)

    🥇La Cyclo MedioFondo Foudre

    ✅ Popular  ✅ Long Race  ✅ Age-Based ✅ Unique Event

    The single event with the most signups this weekend is this new series from Team Foudre – a weekly “medio fondo” featuring age-based groupings and a women-only category. These first four events, held on four consecutive weekends in October, serve as a sort of “pre-series,” where your best two results count towards the overall. An overall 2025/2026 begins in November (see event description for details).

    This weekend’s race is on two laps of Chasing the Sun in Makuri Islands (70.2km, 628m)

    Sunday, October 12 @ 7:45am UTC/3:45am ET/12:45am PT

    🥇 HISP London Minitour, Stage 3

    ✅ Stage Race ✅ Unique Event ✅ Popular

    Based on early signup numbers, this race series is also a popular one! It’s a 4-stage series, raced each weekend, with mass starts and no categories. Stage three is this weekend on London Uprising (20.9km, 356m).

    Enter individual races for the fun of it, or compete in all four stages. There’s a GC on ZwiftPower which uses cumulative time to rank riders across the series!

    🥇 TNP Bologna Smash

    ✅ Unique Event  ✅ Tough Climb

    Team Not Pogi has organized a race mirroring the pro peloton who will be racing Il Lombardia, the last monument of the season, on Saturday. This race has rides taking on 32.5km of the Bologna Time Trial route, which means you’ll you up and down the challenging San Luca climb twice!

    Saturday, October 11 @ 5:20pm UTC/1:20pm ET/10:20am PT
    Sign up at zwift.com/events/view/5121391

    🤝 DBR Social Ride

    ✅ Beginner Friendly  ✅ Legacy Leaders

    Looking for a fun social ride? Join the experienced DBR time for 60 minutes on the Douce France route. The ride leader will keep a pace at 30-35kph, but you aren’t limited to that speed – the ride description says “… it’s ok to ride ahead and join other riders in front – just remember to be social.”

    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!
