Awesome.. yes I think women I think I can race A and maybe B as I’m right in the transition zone, mixed is B. I’m on Zwift power but I shall join the team today. Ive never done the TTT so I’m totally happy to take a back seat on that as I’m not drilled in it.
For all races, We recommend joining for pre race chat. For individual points races, no need to stay connected whilst racing. For Team TT, we found it best to stay on chat whilst racing to help with taking pulls and reorganisation if the group becomes split.
First race is a points race, 34km Richmond's UCI World's Reverse (2 laps).
Power Ups available: Aero Boost, Drafting Boost and Feather.
**Links are now available and will be sent out shortly.**
NOTE:
This is a link to the WTRL website where you MUST have an account. By clicking the link it will associate you with the correct team. ( I will send CCA Racers B links, Matt P will send CCA Racers links). Once you have followed the link (you may need to log in to WTRL) it will direct you to Zwift where you need to sign-up to the correct race, either Pen A (Racers) or Pen B (Racers B ).
ANOTHER NOTE!:
The 2 races have different start times, as our new B team is in a different part of the league. B start time is 18:21.
Well that all worked well. I'm in and have CCA Racers to my zwift power profile. Just a question for you more experienced shifters. When you are in race, is there way on the screen to see where your team mates are? My display normally just shows me the people immediately close to me. thanks
On the Companion app on your phone, if you go to the 'Zwifters' section, then the 'Zwifters following' tab, I think it is, you get a list of your team mates and how far ahead or behind on that course you are... Don't think you can see on the actual screen, though?
ok thanks Dave. I will probably have a problem then because i don't have internet in the garage so I zwift through my phone hotspot. And when you zwift through a hotspot, it seems to bugger up the functionality of the ZC App. But I'll try it later.
We found last season that it was difficult to employ any real tactics during the races. Cycle hard and try and hang on is the main one. Then agree who might try for any given sprint is the secondary one, but in reality that is pretty fluid depending on who is in the lead group. If feeling fresh, go for the sprint!
It should show you on the mini map people who youre following on zwift with a different colour dot, get everyone added and will be easier to see the team. Then cling on for dear life
If you do want to track fellow riders ZwiftGPS.com does this. Go to their website, give consent to use Zwift data and provide ZwiftID and you can then toggle between maps of all the world's and are able to track where people you follow are riding.
A racers, it's a tough one tonight, the third climb is by far the hardest. The bunch split after the third climb but came back together again on the long flat, i would save power ups for the climbs.
well I think they call that a 'learning experience'. Horrible. Definitely out of my depth in the A's. I think you all must have left discord by the time I got into it. Well done all.

Matt P, please confirm A start time...

This is the course recce for tonight. Punchy hills from the start so good warm up needed!
I don’t see Taff there yet. Hopefully the relatively early start not a problem.
Well done everyone for competing tonight, great effort and commitment by all.
Great rides by all.
