Zwift-6Points Mallorca Sunday Training Ride 03/09

Today I was leading our 6Points Mallorca team through the virtual streets of Watopia on the Flat Route of the Zwift riding platform. In total it was a 4 lap training ride with some sprints and an optional mini-race at the end, around 5km.
Brian S. took the sweeper role today – thanks mate.

Flat Route on Zwift

We started with a good 2,6 W/kg to warm up a bit before going to a 2,8 W/kg, 3,2 W/kg on the uphills. This course also has some smaller climbs in it, both before and after the sprint. And what has to go up has to come down, right 😌
The down part towards the last downhill is a little bumpy where one hast to maintain the power. If you can maintain it, the last downhill towards the finish line of the lap will give you a relaxing moment.

In total we had 3 sprints during the ride, no sprint on the last lap because of the optional mini-race.

Sprint 2
Sprint 3

Congrats to the sprinters for good fighting. Valois got a solid 21.12 in the end – good job 🏆
Let’s check if we got different nubers during the mini-race:

Sprint 4

From the bridge after the marina I gave the GO GO GO for the racers to start their 5km fight towards the finish line.
Because there was a uphill immediately after the start, a group of riders were going right from the gun. I was leading the chasing group to keep a good pace, but also a draft for the run to the finish line. The front group could also catch our sweeper Brian on the downhill towards the finish line. Fun to see the racers fighting hard for the podium.

Congrats to Valois 🥇, Kevin 🥈 and B. Wu 🥉 for the podium.

Thanks to Kevin we have a RACE VIDEO – THX mate 👍🏻

A big THANKS to all riders having fun with us today, it was a good ride.
