New Race Component
This year’s TdZ included open races, which is a big change from prior years. Over 61k Zwifters participated in TdZ races, and many of those were new racers, which is always a good thing.
Interestingly, men and women showed an equal appetite for TdZ racing, with 51% of female TdZ participants racing at least once, and 53% of male participants doing the same.
Prior to each stage, a Pro-Am race was held on the upcoming route. These races were live-streamed by Zwift and anchored by OJ Borg and various co-hosts – and they did a fine job. Zwift’s best broadcasts yet! Zwift says over 15,500 hours of content were consumed by viewers watching these Pro-Am races.
Community Support
More than 4.5 million Ride Ons were shared during the Tour de Zwift among participants – a wonderful reflection of the Zwifters supporting one another.
