Help - What now? (lack of A races)

Racing
1

Hello all,

I have really been enjoying consistent racing for the last 6 months.

All the racing leagues organisation/explanations/finding teams are confusing (help/links very welcome), so I have simply been jumping on to the Zwift Racing events at 10 past the hour as a B cat.

I have been aware from ages that A racing looks pretty dead. You certainly can’t find a 20 person A race reliably.

With the ZRS kicking in, I am now at 690+, so now dead races are my problem too. :frowning:

A Racers - how are you managing this please? I presume certain timeslots are ok?

All I really want is a decent field, even if I get spat out the back.

Thanks

Tom

5pm bst is gonna pick up if you wanna do the community series, or the zr academy races look fairly well attended

at 6:15 there is the dbr monday race too, people will turn up for that. with the added bonus that the categories all share a road, just as a staggered start

probably the A slot will fill out in a week or two, if the HIGH/LOW splits from the beta period were anything to go by

zp signup sheets can be unreliable these days

Usually I just end up not racing. Also if I see a race with 20 people in and I know 2 or 3 are blatant cheats then I don’t race (this happens a lot). Good A races are few and far between.

You’re absolutely welcome in Herd Winter Racing - no categories.

Typically the front of the race is pretty good. The first Winter series starts tomorrow.
