Route and Climb of the Week Combined Into “Ride of the Week” Challenge

Yesterday, Zwift launched a change to the “Route of the Week” and “Climb of the Week” feature, combining them into a single challenge named “Ride of the Week”. Here’s how it works…

One Challenge, Two Rides, Lots of XP

The “Ride of the Week” challenge consists of a rotating selection of routes and climb portals. Each week, a fresh route is selected, as well as a fresh climb portal.

Ride one of them and you’ll earn a 250XP bonus. Ride both of them and you’ll earn an additional 500XP bonus!

Getting Started

Riding the featured route or climb in any fashion (in an event, as a workout, as a free ride, etc) will earn you completion credit and the XP bonus. You can only earn the bonuses once per week.

To easily access the Ride of the Week selections and see your progress, click the challenge card on the homescreen:

From there, you can track your completion progress and choose a featured route or climb to ride:
