EVENT DESCRIPTION
The Glasgow Green Cycle Club (GGCC) Time Trial provides a Friday evening TT opportunity (European time) for A, B, C and D racers, but open to all timezones. You are encouraged to enter into your appropriate category*. See below.

GGCC is a Glasgow based cycling club whose “in real life” (irl) club runs are always organized into four speed groups, and they match the Zwift categories (see below) quite well. GGCC also has a good race and TT pedigree and presence in Scotland, and so we have organized our Zwift TT to suit what we believe is relevant to bike riders’ interests in performance and improvement in our Club, in other Glasgow clubs, in Scotland and the UK. Racers will, no doubt, aspire to category A.

As we expect our club’s steady riders to be able to ride 50 miles at or around a 15mph average on our Sunday rides, such steady riding members will be comfortable with Zwift Category D, and we cater for all abilities, at the Zwift A, B and C levels too.

In our Zwift TT, be prepared for fast starts (a Zwift characteristic!) and hard racing. Generally things settle down after 10 minutes or so as TTers find their preferred speed.

Results can be seen at the end of the TT on screen, and we will, in common with other organisers, we shall publish your results on zwiftpower.com too, based on each category.

Please look out for our TTs on the same day of the week, Friday, every week at 18.45 (6.45pm) and 19.45 (7.45pm) in the UK, 1.45pm and 2.45pm EDT in the US, and at 19.45 and 20.45 European time.

TT bikes are required. Please add GGCC (X) to your Zwift name to allow your race presence to be recognized, where X is your desired race category. Categories are as below, related to your Functional Threshold Power (FTP) wattage:

*Categories: Use your FTP and then divide by your weight in kg, then pick the correct group.
A: 4.0 W/kg FTP or higher (what GGCC calls “race”)
B: 3.2 W/kg to 3.99 W/kg FTP (what GGCC calls “cheeky challenge”)
C: 2.5 W/kg to 3.19 W/kg FTP (what GGCC calls “challenge”)
D: Under 2.49 W/kg FTP (what GGCC calls “steady”)

PLEASE NOTE: Strava data for our races must be open (not private or hidden). Please use a heart monitor so that we can monitor correlated power and heart rate to help assure fair racing.
