Course Notes – 1 Laps inc Lead-In – 29.2km

Last raced by many back at the WTRL World TTT Champs, as well as ZRL Season 1. This course is made for Team Time Trials.

The only significant test is the Hilly KOM Rev, but this is only the first 400m, then it is a false flat really to the arch. Other than this, plus a couple of short digs on gravel and in tunnels, you should be able to safely carry out turns on the front, fully utilising a TTT rotation for large parts.

Why not see how fast you are likely to go with the Zwift DS Time Predictor – this will give you a time for your 4 (min required) to 6 riders, based on the best WTRL TTT racers. It will also tell you the power that each rider should be using on the front and for how long, based on their Weight and Height.
