ZWIFT RACE : Aussie Crit Crushers Race 1 of 2 (Group B)

In the last 800m of the Aussie Crit race, I wasn’t able to keep up with a racer who pulled a massive 22.0W/KG to ride to victory. This video is the last stretch of the Zwift : Aussie Crit Crushers Race 1 of 2 (Group B) held on the 24-02-2021.

I wasn’t playing too much attention at the end, as with 800m to go I am coming 16th, and the distance to 1st is getting longer.

I usually wait to 400m to go, but this was a rather interesting which you will need to see for yourself, as see what one of the racers w/KG gets up to towards the end.

I ride absoluteBLACK 53t Oval/ 39t Oval So I’ve found I can get through these races riding the 53t Big Ring and grind out standing for the entire race.

Game plan is to basically grind away, but never take the lead. If I am leading, I soft pedal to get back into the Zwift draft.

Wait till the last 400m to make a sprint with any power ups I have.
