EVENT DESCRIPTION
Fancy pushing yourself to get that sub-hour up Alpe Du Zwift? Katie will pace the group to hit that milestone target to get you to the top of the mountain in under 60 minutes. There is also a second group to hit sub-90.
This is a monthly event so get your climbing legs ready for the challenge. And if you don’t get the time you want, come back next month to do it all again.
It’s a fun challenge, no pressure. All for the fun of the riding mountains in good company.
This year will see the third TDFFaZ battle it out on the race's final climb on the iconic and legendary Alpe d'Huez. The women's peloton will ascend the 21 switchbacks on August 18 - the final of the 8-stage race in front of thousands of raucous fans. In the build up to this world renowned race and climb, we can challenge ourselves to the same brutal fate the pro teams will face - with Alpe du Zwift. The same gradients, the same 21 switchbacks - but not to race each other... but ourselves.
This monthly event will be paced to push you to get your best time on this tough course. The reward... the best in-game kit unlock, the chance to win real life swag in the form of a Watch the Femmes cap, and the glory of pushing to your limit and that all time PB.
Meet Katie:
Katie has gone from struggling 20km to riding mountains and endurance rides around the world. She has shared her whole journey, including 35kg weight loss on her YouTube channel, Katie Kookaburra. She aims to encourage and inspire others to push their limits and enjoy life on two wheels.
