This Week’s Routes: Variations on a Loop
This week all four races are on Watopia’s Two Bridges Loop route, but each race is longer than the one before. Begin with a short race to the JWB Sprint Reverse line and end with a full loop of the route. Each race’s finish varies from the others, appealing to the strengths of different riders!
Race 1: Two Bridges Loop (2.832km, ending at JWB Sprint Reverse) A super-short start, this is going to be a VO2 blast with riders attacking from the gun. Will you use your aero to attack early, or to boost your sprint? Powerup: Aero (1x) |
Race 2: Two Bridges Loop (5.62km, ending atop climb) Here’s one for the puncheurs, with the finish line atop this route’s key ascent. Powerup: Aero (2x) |
Race 3: Two Bridges Loop (6.37km, ending on bridge after descent) Hit the key climb, descend the backside, and finish at high speed on the overpass bridge. Powerup: Aero (2x) |
Race 4: Two Bridges Loop (1 lap, 7.3km) We finish with the full loop, ending in an all-out sprint. Powerup: Aero (2x) |
What are the Tiny Races?
Our innovative Tiny Race format uses four short back-to-back races within one hour. Each race is 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.
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.
