February 1st Routes: Urukazi Kamikaze
All four routes this week are in Makuri Islands’ Urukazi area… but each route has a distinct flavor. Will you surf wheels and wait for the final sprint, or put it all on the line with a long and courageous attack?
| Race 1: Bridges and Boardwalks (5.051km, end at Shisa Sprint) Ride over to the Boardwalk Sprint to pick up your feather, then wind your way up to Urukazi’s highest post – the Shisa Sprint bridge – for the big finish! This sprint is a real drag… Powerup: Feather (1x) |
| Race 2: Mech Isle Loop (1 Lap, 4km) The shortest Makuri Island route makes for a great short race with its climb section and a mixture of dirt and paved roads. Can you break away on the climb, or should you sit in for the sprint? Powerup: none |
| Race 3: Island Outskirts (6.2km, end on boardwalk after descent) Race from Mech Isle up the other side of the Shisa Sprint climb, but this time we’ll descend to the boardwalk for a flying final sprint. Timing is everything – when will you use the anvil? Powerup: Anvil (1x) |
| Race 4: Island Hopper (7.35km, end on bridge atop Mech Isle climb) This one is really flat… until it’s not! Ends at the bridge atop the Mech Isle’s corkscrew dirt climb. Powerup: Steamroller (2x) |
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 Rachel Messina, who won the free bag of beans for January 18th’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! 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.
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.
