January 18th Routes: Makuri Tour
We’re staying in Makuri Islands for all four races this week. Some dusty, some twisty, some in the city and some in the countryside. Enjoy!
| Race 1: Spirit Forest (3.35km, ends partway up Temple KOM) This dirty, mostly-uphill route takes us on the rarely-ridden cross trail that connects both sides of the Temple KOM partway up their respective climbs. Then we’ll turn left off that trail and continue the Temple KOM for a bit, ending at a custom finish. Powerup: none |
| Race 2: Chasing the Sun (4.42km to Railway Sprint arch) A flattish race through the streets of Neokyo, this one will encourage long attacks on the ramp up to the railway. On top of that, the Railway Sprint always feels like a long effort! Powerup: Draft Boost (1x) |
| Race 3: Railways and Rooftops (5.44km ends atop Rooftop KOM Reverse) The reverse version of the Rooftop KOM in Neokyo isn’t an official segment, and it’s a rather unfamiliar climb to most Zwifters since few routes go this way. Powerup: Feather (1x) |
| Race 4: Turf N Surf (7.55km, ends in slot canyon) Begin in Neokyo, then ride out through Neokyo Tunnel and onto the twisty connector road to a custom finish in the scenic slot canyon. Powerup: Aero Boost (1x) |
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!
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.
Congrats to PERC Coffee prize winner Jake Sitler (Endo), who won the free bag of beans for January 11th’s races. Email [email protected] to claim them!

FRESH TINY VIDS
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! Four races, four 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.)
- Heart rate monitors are required.
- Smart trainer/smart bike or power meter required. ZPower/Virtual power is not allowed.
Join a Chat & Chill Cooldown
Immediately following each hour’s racing we’ve scheduled 30-minute “Chat & Chill” events where riders from all categories can spin their legs together and chat about how it all went down. Find them at zwift.com/events/tag/tinyraces.
