October 25th Routes – Danny’s Crit Week
This week’s courses were selected by Danny Enzo, our favorite TikToker. It’s a mix of fun crit routes, and everyone gets a single Aero Boost (helmet) powerup at the start of each race. Enjoy!
| Race 1: Glasgow Reverse (2 laps – 7.1km) Brace yourself for big attacks on The Clyde Kicker Reverse, and make sure you time that final sprint just right. A brilliant crit course, to be sure! Powerup: Aero |
| Race 2: Bell Lap (3 laps – 5.7km) Most racers know Crit City well, but have you ever raced just 3 laps? Hopefully somebody will go long on the final twisty climb and really make it interesting. Powerup: Aero |
| Race 3: Downtown Dolphin (3 laps, 5.7km) Racers know this route well. The question is: who will go long on the bricks, and can they stay away? Powerup: Aero |
| Race 4: Neokyo Crit Course (1 lap – 4.7km) We finish on the flattest route of the day. Will you go early on the Castle Park rise, or save it for the finish? Powerup: Aero |
What are the Tiny Races?
Our innovative Tiny Race format features four short back-to-back races within one hour. Each race is usually 4-7km long, so expect a big VO2 workout!
A single powerup is given as you start each race, and you earn points based on your finishing position in each race. The overall win goes to whoever earns the most points across all four races.

ZwiftPower Results
Zwift displays the finish order in game when you cross the line, but points are computed after all four races are finished, with final results on ZwiftPower. (We have to do some data processing on our side to compute results, so if your rankings don’t show up right away, be patient.)
Riders earn points based on finish position in each of the 4 Tiny Races. The category winner of each week is the rider with the most points across their zone’s 4 races. Here are the links for each zone’s latest results on ZwiftPower:
Rules
Tiny Race rules are simple, but still every week ~10% of our racers get disqualified. Don’t let that be you! Three simple rules:
- You must have a ZwiftPower account, because final results are processed by ZwiftPower (learn how to sign up)
- No skipping then returning. These races are meant to be raced as a set of 4. If you need to leave early, that’s fine… but once you miss a race in your hour’s set of 4, don’t come back and race another or you’ll be disqualified from that race since you rested while others were racing! (Example: racing only races 1 and 2 is fine. Racing 1, 2, and 4 is not – you will be DQ from race 4.)
- Smart trainer/smart bike or power meter required. ZPower/Virtual power is not allowed.
Enjoy the Cooldown
Immediately following each final race, you’ll be taken into a 10-minute cooldown where you can chat with fellow racers and spin out those legs.
