EVENT DESCRIPTION
ABOUT

Ciao and welcome to the Giro di Castelli, a 5 stage event open to all Zwifters. Featuring a mix of flat, hilly and mountain stages, the Giro di Castelli is a personal endurance challenge as you compete against others, yourself, and the clock. Results will be displayed when you finish. 10 Zwifters who complete 3 of the 5 stages are eligible to win a Castelli kit (jersey and bib shorts). Zwifters who complete any stage will unlock the Castelli kit used during that stage.

IS THIS A RACE?

No, it's a personal challenge against the distance and the clock. Some participants will ride the event like a race but there is no winner of the Giro di Castelli. It's all about doing your best and trying to finish as many stages as possible.
