THIS IS A RACE! - New route "Outer Scotland" on ZWIFT

[@RoadtoA]

This route had a zing to it! But IMO one of the most fun routes they introduced lately. Perfect balance of difficulty and fun.

[@RideWithGerben]

Yes!! Loved it. It really forces you to pay attention to your power output!

[@jim96r]

Gerben you always balance power and performance with an appreciation with what has happened no matter how how terrible the end...Fantastic and fun to watch!

[@RideWithGerben]

Thank you for watching! It was a great race!

[@Paul.OKeeffe]

Great ride Gerben. I'll be having a go on Saturday.

[@RideWithGerben]

Let me know how it went! Gogogo

[@terrencestamps5125]

All I’ll say is WOW!

[@RideWithGerben]

Yeahhh!!!

[@PatrickLino]

15:18 - I know that feeling LoL

[@RideWithGerben]

RIP Gerben :D

[@WarpedSQL]

Heartbreak man... you busted butt there.. and a studder in connectivity... man, I'm sorry to see that. Still a heroic effort Gerben! Nicely done!

[@RideWithGerben]

Thank you!! It was a great race!

[@robertnobles8189]

You put yourself in position to WIN this race! You should be very proud of your effort. Bummer in the finish, but out of your control.

[@RideWithGerben]

Yes. Pretty bummed about that. But heyho there is always another ZWIFT race😅

[@AureliusInvictuss]

great racing 👍👍👍

[@RideWithGerben]

Thank you!!!

[@E.M.B.R]

Very solid bridge effort in lap 2, Gerben!. Very unlucky at the end but just know that you did the work - some things can't be helped. This route shares a lot in common with the Muckle Yin - relentless surges and very spicy - I kind of want to ride it now but probably still going to do Temples and Towers this week instead.

[@RideWithGerben]

I got temples and towers also on my list for this week. It’s a bit longer than I usually ride, but we’ll see!

[@pascalbocherel7785]

Tough race for sure, lot of attacks. It’s disappointing to see late joiners popping up at the front particularly towards the last kilometers. They are creating havocs in the lead group coming with fresh legs. Zwift should place late joiners mid pack.

[@RideWithGerben]

Yes! Or at the back. It was crazy at the front in the end.

[@willheffernan]

What is with all the riders appearing out of nowhere and the ones disappearing? I don't get it.

[@RideWithGerben]

Late joiners to the party and quitters I think!

[@PaulFoye]

@@RideWithGerbenweird I did a late join, and ended up placed 550 on a (A) stage. How did they up at the front lol! I finished 109 , used it as a endurance test

[@benfinesilver2250]

Those aren’t listed as races mate. No ZP results. Includes people on wheel on trainers.

[@RideWithGerben]

Nah. If you are in the front you are racing!

[@JeffOTRCycling]

Is there any chance you can go to Australia and race Duran the Vegan (Harley) and make a video? He looks exactly like you. I would give the winner $1000.

[@RideWithGerben]

Hey @durianriders some random guy will give us a 1000 if we race each other, because you look like me! LOL!

[@roeland_st]

spijtig van het einde want je reed een zeer sterk.

[@RideWithGerben]

Rematch gedaan 😅

[@ahnilatedahnilated7703]

Man do drop outs suck during a ride.

[@RideWithGerben]

It’s a sinking feeling indeed 😭

[@tathh2531]

Trust me, it’s not a race when you’re 145th out of 201 riders 🤣 It’s only a race for you A guys. The rest of us get beaten by people who join just as you guys are finishing and end up doing 100 meters and coming inside the top 50 😂😂😂

[@RideWithGerben]

LoL! It’s full gas in the front indeed!!!

[@stuartybulloch4360]

Wtf
