DESCRIPTION DE L'ÉVÉNEMENT
Join us for four days of celebration with community leaders, pros, employees, and more.

Don't miss this chance to ride, reminisce, and unlock the kit of the decade!


About the Ride

Who wears white shorts best? Ask the question by joining cycling superstar Mathieu van der Poel and 2024 Zwift Games Champion Freddie Ovett for a virtual edition of the #CostaBlancaBoysClub. Mathieu and Freddy will be swapping their warm weather training in Spain for a friendly paced group ride in Watopia, as they gear up for the 2024 UCI Gravel World Championships this weekend in Belgium.

A select number of Zwift clubs have chosen to showcase their club kit for these rides. Rest assured, if you join an event where you are not wearing the 10th anniversary kit during the ride, you will unlock both that Zwift Club kit AND the 10-year Anniversary kit! If you are in a ride where you are wearing the 10th anniversary kit, that is the sole unlock for the event.
