The we do it all again, but this time, when we turn left off the Boulevard, we finish the ride with a 4km minirace to the end of the ride, which finishes at the sprint finish arch. Ride around the Volcano clockwise, make our way through the downtown start/finish line and onto Ocean Boulevard before a quick left back to Fuego Flats.Īt the end of the first lap, we sprint on the sprint marked section again. Take Ocean Blvd toward the Fishing Village (away from Downtown), turn left toward the Italian Village, then another left at the fountain to head toward the Volcano. The we ride clockwise around the desert loop until it drops us off on Ocean Blvd. Just after the start is the first marked sprint section.
We begin on Fuego Flats at the spawn point. It’s called “Watopia’s Waistband” because it nicely encircles key landmarks in Watopia proper including downtown Watopia, Fuego Flats, the Italian Villas, the Volcano, and the Fishing Village.
This perimeter route covers portions of Watopia’s three “flat” routes, ( Tick Tock, Volcano Flat, Watopia Flat). David Smith is your beacon leader this weekend Prompt regrouping to the yellow beacon (riding at ~2.5w/kg) after each sprint section, please and the closing minirace is to start at or behind the beacon, with the fence in use to assure that. We look forward to seeing you and your avatar there for a hilly 27kms, a tough rolling course with sprints and KOMs, with very little flat riding. The only noticeable uphills are the rise outside of Saddle Springs, the ramp out of Ocean Boulevard and the climb to the Italian Villas which follows, the volcano kicker and the shallow climb back into the desert.directions. It’s not such a tough one, 2 laps of the Zwift Watopia Waistband, flatter than all official routes except Tempus Fugit and Tick Tock. Hit that 500m sprint segment once more, and the stone arch is your finish line.Hello Sunday Zwift 6Pointers! Our Zwift training ride is on as usual at 11.40am UTC on Sunday (see link). When you exit the tunnel you’ll soon turn a right to cross another bridge toward the island containing Fuego Flats. This is where the Tempus Fugit route turns around, but for Tick Tock we continue through town and down into the Redwood Forest–the longest descent on the route, but it’s over before you know it!Ĭross the bridge to Ocean Boulevard, then descend into the ocean tunnel. Next you’ll ride through the old town of Desert Flats (watch for the steam engine to come roaring through) then through a gap in the rocks to a hidden oasis complete with a waterfall and dinosaur fossils.Ĭontinue on and you’ll ride into Saddle Springs, the 1950’s-inspired resort town. First you pass the cliff dwellings near the first turnaround loop, then you hit the forward 500m sprint segment. There are lots of landmarks on this route to make this visually interesting and help you keep your bearings. You’ve got just a bit of gradual climb toward the start line, but nothing more than most cyclists would call a “rise.” You then proceed through the flat tube, hit the ramp up and out, then hang a right toward Fuego Flats. This descent maxes out at 3% and brings you to the entrance of the ocean tube which is a short downhill ramp. 92m/km.)īeginning in Fuego Flats, your trip will be pan-flat until you exit Saddle Springs and descend through the Redwood Forest. This is the second-flattest route in all of Zwift as the time of its release, with 2.6 meters of climbing per kilometer of road. Released as part of Zwift’s Fuego Flats desert expansion, this route is flatter than Watopia Flat or Volcano Flat, with the only pitchy bits being in and out of Fuego Flats, and in and out of the ocean tunnel. “Tick Tock” is a clockwise loop covering Fuego Flats and portions of the Ocean Boulevard tube.
