As we await the start of the NCC Zwift Fall Hill Climb/Time Trial series in a few weeks, five of us tried a Zwift Crit.
This week, Charlie, Jonathan, Melissa, Zinj, and I entered the B category. The race started with 50 riders.
Each lap was 1.2 miles around Zwift’s Crit City. In total, the race was 9.6 miles.
Everyone was in the lead group through the first few laps. My sensors dropped in the 3rd lap and I could not get them back. Not my night, but I was racing up a division. Melissa and Charlie were with the pack until around lap seven. Zinj flew in the final lap. Jonathan finished fourth overall.
