As we head into the first round of Zwift Racing League (ZRL) 2023/24, WTRL (organizers of ZRL) has published a growing slate of group recon rides designed to help riders perform their best in each week’s races.
As recon rides, these events occur on the same course being raced in ZRL the following week (see full race schedule). Each Group Recon Ride is hosted by an established Zwift racing club, with ride leaders on hand to deliver racing tips and answer questions.
Upcoming ZRL Group Recon Rides can be found at zwift.com/events/tag/zrlrecon >
Varied Pacing
Each ZRL Group Recon Ride event has a stated pace which the leaders will hold do. Most rides are D or C pace, while a few are E (open pace) or offer multiple paces.
The schedule is still being filled in, so expect more events on the calendar as WTRL is shooting for four Group Recon Rides per day.

Here’s what WTRL says:
