EVENT DESCRIPTION
October 🥨 RIDES
Each week in October, we'll be visiting a different route on Zwift, taking on one of the epic Zwift rides. This month we'll be throwing in routes with lots of climbs, some sprints and plenty of KOMs, should you choose to speed and regroup.
Although the ride officially stops at 2 hours, we strongly encourage you to carry on for the after party, and bag that route badge.
Pick your intensity wisely, 2.0w/kg (red beacon) will be zone 2 for many cat C riders, 2.5w/kg (yellow beacon) is zone 2 for moderate to high cat B riders (or choose to push your w/kg a bit higher by using a MTB).
The Velos jersey is unassigned during this event but you will unlock it if you complete the 2 hour ride, please wear our jersey to show your support if you have it in your garage🙏. Long rides can drag on your own, so jump in, and Team Velos will help the time fly past with the friendly chat and questionable jokes. Don't forget to grab a bidon or two, and bring some snacks!
