This Zwift Race Just Wouldn’t Stop Surging – Loop de Loop

🚴 Cycling gear, apps & discount codes: bio.site/manuelessl Stage 4 of the ZRacing Shimano Dura-Ace Series takes us to Loop de Loop in Watopia — a fast 25 km Zwift race with 289 meters of elevation and, most importantly, two ascents of the Zwift KOM. With around 80 riders in the Advanced Monday Primetime field, the race was expected to become increasingly selective each time we hit the climb. The first lap was already going to hurt, but doing it again after a race full of constant surges and attacks was the real test. If you watched my Route Recon, you already know why positioning before the Zwift KOM matters so much on this course. I also went into the race expecting the Shimano Dura-Ace wheel setup associated with this series, but something appeared to be different with the equipment in this event — something that became particularly noticeable later in the race. This video covers the full race story, the key selections, positioning, attacks, Zwift KOM efforts, power data and the post-race analysis.
