ABOUT THE CASTELLI SERIES

Welcome to the Castelli RIde Series. Each week we offer varying types of rides with dedicated ride leaders. Since it's a Castelli ride, all Zwifters will wear virtual versions of Castelli's lastest cycling kits. We will also choose USA riders at random from selected rides to win some cool Castelli cycling apparel accessories. Just start and finish the ride to be eligible to win. Sorry, the promotion is being offered by Casetlli-USA so it's only open to USA Zwifters. For more info on Castelli visit www.castelli-cycling.comOpens a new window

ABOUT THE THURSDAY NIGHT THROWDOWN

This is one of the rides in the Castelli weekly series. The format of this ride functions more like a true road race. Riders will roll neutral for approximately 3 mile or 5 kilometers. This format will allow everyone to get up to speed as a peloton. The ride leaders with the yellow beacon will signal the start of the race at the end of the neutral zone. Anyone sprinting off ahead will be DQ’d.

Your ride leaders for this ride are from TeamODZ and we will be communicating though Discord. Discord is not required, but the experience is enhanced by using it. Click on the link here to get setup - https://discord.gg/0opEuehwdy1ECPBNOpens a new window
