Zwift Race London: Stage 2 – London Loop (B)

by

Oof, a nasty one today. One that caught me out. I have definitely completed the London Loop route before, but the gotcha on this race was that it was 1.5 laps… so we hit Box Hill twice. I’d had a dental appointment this morning so it wasn’t like I hadn’t had time to do a … Read more

I thought I’d do things properly today. Get in a solid warm up (15+ minutes) at … Read more
