Hello all,  
Until it’s gets icy outside I will ride outdoors but today it’s hammering it down. I’ve once raced about 2 years ago when I started on Zwift so might have a go today but was hoping that there might be a recommendation?  
Thanks.

If your Racing Score is under ~450, try Herd Beginner Racing at the weekends, a few different times including 1200 BST Saturday.

Just as a note - the current max ZRS for Herd Beginner Racing’s top pen is 475. Working plan is to lower that to 425 for next week.
