June 29th Routes: Bonnie Scotland
This week’s races are all held in Scotland, on various routes that take you to all the key parts of the map. Hammer your way across the countryside’s rolling roads, the short pitches of Glasgow, and the Sgurr’s dirty slopes!
We’re keeping the same category setup from last week (but next week we’re doing something totally new and exciting!):
- E: VO2 Max <=41 AND zMAP <=260
- D: VO2 Max <=48 AND zMAP <=300
- C: VO2 Max <=55 AND zMAP <=340
- B: VO2 Max <=63.5 AND zMAP <=380
- A: VO2 Max >63.5 OR zMAP >380
Note: you can see your current VO2 Max and zMAP by logging into your profile at zwift.com and looking in the “Fitness” box.

Race 1: The Muckle Yin (6.005km, ends at Breakaway Brae Rev banner) This rolling route offers opportunities for early breakaways. Powerup: Draft Boost (2x) |
Race 2: Loch Loop (6.2km, ends at entrance of Corkscrew Castle) Racers know this loop well already, but not this finish line. It’s another 1-2 punch with back-to-back short climbs! Powerup: Aero Boost (2x) |
Race 3: Glasgow Crit Circuit (6.3km – 2 laps) Brace yourself for big attacks on The Clyde Kicker, and make sure you time that final sprint just right. A brilliant crit course, to be sure! Powerup: Aero Boost (4x) |
Race 4: City and the Sgurr (5.188km, ends at top of paved side) We saved the best for last. Climb the gravel side of the Sgurr, followed quickly by the paved side. It’s all about w/kg! Powerup: Feather (1x) |
What are the Tiny Races?
Our innovative Tiny Race format uses 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.

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.
