Zwifter Al Clewly has announced June’s challenge–details below.
Time Trial Navigation
In response to those whom wished for a “more inclusive” challenge!
First of all, as the previous challenges have been, well – challenging, the June one is starting early and running alongside May’s tough Everest challenge. This means that there will be just over 5 weeks to get an entry in by 12:00 GMT on 1st July 2016.
The route:
- Starting at the usual “Ride Now” point before the Start banner, reverse your course and head anti clockwise for a short warm up.
- The TT route starts at the Green Jersey sprint banner at the end of the bridge.
- From there navigate to the underwater island with the tree (Right Turn and Straight) and then take the Right turn towards the Mountain.
- Having emerged from the tunnel, at exactly the last unbroken arch, reverse course and then navigate to the Spruce Goose aeroplane (Left and Left).
- At exactly the end of the bridge, again reverse course and navigate back to the underwater tunnel towards the small Watopia island hill. (Right, Straight, Left).
- Go around the 270 degree climbing turn and at exactly the end of the bridge reverse course and head back to the underwater tunnel (Right turn).
- Now navigate to “Hanks” (Straight, Straight, Straight) and at the start line for the reverse KOM (just by Hanks) reverse course.
- Now navigate back to the Clockwise Green Jersey sprint banner (Straight) which is the finish line!
The TT route is 13.6 miles
Rules for entry.
- In order to be entered you must upload your ride to Strava.
- Your turns must be accurate enough to place you on the segment “MC June – TT Navigation”
- All riders listed on this segment will be entered into the draw for 2 Zwift bidons
The challenge will be for you to get placed on this segment. No other means will be accepted! The segment can be viewed here. (Consider making it a favorite to find it more easily.)
There is no prize for being KOM, but don’t let that stop you trying!! There is also no time limit. Hopefully this one will enable many more to have a go!
Good luck
