BBC Sunday Ride on Zwift

February 2 @ 9:00 am - 11:00 am

Click the link here to sign up on Zwift Companion for Sunday 2/2

Join the Buffalo Bicycling Club on Zwift for a 2 hour ride at a steady pace of 2.5 watts/kilogram.  This is a social group ride, so please stick to the pace and please stick with the ride leader. Since this is a collaborative ride, if 2.5w.kg doesn’t work for you, feel free to adjust your weight in Zwift accordingly before the ride starts so you can ride along!  Each week, the second hour features optional sprints with regrouping after each one.

Thank you to everyone who participated in our January Sprint Challenge!  We had a lot of great competition throughout our friendly, cooperative group rides!

Here is the final Sprint Challenge leaderboard:

  6. Click the Plus on this week’s event to say you’re going (without joining the club on Zwift and marking that you’re going to this week’s ride, Zwift won’t send you to the right place)
