March 29th Routes – Rolling World Tour
This week we feature four routes from four different maps, all with rolling profiles that feature key short climbs.
| Race 1: Classique Reverse (7.43km, ends at Mall banner) Covering only the lead-in from the pens to The Mall Sprint banner, this route is quite flat apart from the quick Northumberland Ave climb to Trafalgar Square. Powerup: Aero (1x) |
| Race 2: Volcano Flat Reverse (5.5km, ending atop Dirty Sorpressa) This route is fairly uneventful until the final ~50 seconds, when we hit the snaking Dirty Sopressa climb up to the Italian Village. You’ll have a steamroller to help make the full gas dash up the dirt a bit faster, but be sure to time it well! Powerup: Steamroller (1x) |
| Race 3: Two Village Loop (5.7km, ends on the circuit around Village Onsen) This is a flattish course as well, although the 1.5km of dirt near the start will make it feel like an uphill effort and encourage early attacks. You’ll do a full lap around the boxy Village Onsen outer roads, finishing partway into the second lap on a straightaway. Powerup: Draft Boost (2x) |
| Race 4: Park Perimeter Loop (7.434km, ends at sprint banner) The Harlem Hill climb will stretch and split the field. But with a few kilometers left until the line, some riders may be able to chase back onto the front. 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.
Congrats to PERC Coffee prize winner Richard Meyer, who won the free bag of beans for the March 15 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.
