Released in April 2025, this route is the first to let Zwifters do hill repeats on The Grade. (It may not a hugely popular feature request on Zwift, but you could turn this into a solid route-based workout for sweet spot or threshold intervals!)

Route Description
You’ll begin near the coastal start pens with a lead-in to the Sasquatch Sprint. The route begins and ends at the Sasquatch Sprint banner.
Ride through the banner, and the game will route you onto the loop road to quickly turn you around so you’re heading back toward The Grade. Take on that climb (treat it like an FTP test if you’d like), then the game will route you onto a second loop at the top to turn you around so you descend The Grade and head back to the Sasquatch Sprint to finish.
That’s one lap. How many more will you do?
