July 5th Routes – Painful Bumps
This weekend’s routes all feature key climbs that will stretch the elastic and force selections. Some are larger than others, and some come mid-race while others are at the finish. Plan your race, then race your plan!


Race 1: Fine and Sandy (6.85km, ends at Tidepool Sprint) Hit the Mech Isle climb early, then it’s a flat, fast ride through Festival Harbor and Mangrove Maze before we take on the beachfront Tidepool Sprint. Powerup: Aero (1x) |
Race 2: Two Bridges Loop (1 lap, 7.3km) Basically a perfect loop for a Tiny Race, this is made even more fun with the inclusion of the anvil powerup. Powerup: Anvil (2x) |
Race 3: London Loop Reverse (3.43km, ending partway up Fox Hill) Enjoy the flat lead in over Tower Bridge and down through the Underground station before the real work begins! You’ve got ~1.5km of Fox Hill to climb for the finish. Powerup: none |
Race 4: Douce France (7.047km, ends at Ballon Sprint) This rolling, twisty route will take you flying through Les Intestins and over a few rollers before sprinting for the Ballon Sprint arch. Powerup: none |
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.

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.
