Tour de Zwift: two questions

Hi,

I’m new to Zwift. I signed up for the Tour de Zwift, did the first stage this morning, and have a couple of questions:

  1. How do I choose between the A (longer) and B (shorter) options for each stage? Today I joined the first stage and just by luck I got B, which is what I wanted. But I want to make sure I don’t get stuck in the wrong one by accident next time. How do I select this?

  2. How can I see the times for each day? I see the schedule that shows days, but not the times. Today I got luck and there was one starting when I wanted (7am). But where can I find the time schedule so I can plan in advance?

Thanks!
Paul

The easy way is to use the companion app on your phone, you can see all events and pic the correct group.

Or you can go to The at Home Cycling & Running Virtual Training App

Why isn’t the a b group anymore for the Tour de Zwift… only a and c…?

Everyone has to ride the same distance for stage 2.

Since I rode the b group for stage 1, should I ride with the a’s or c’s for stage 2. Stage 3 looks the same.

Stage 2 is only one lap of the “Everything Bagel” in NYC therefore there is no long or short option.

The C group is for women exclusively I think, but are riding the same route as the men.

It’s easier in companion app. If you do through Zwift then you have to click then I click then click and you will see (albeit very small) the category changing to the one you want. Use the companion app it’s easier!

That’s cool. What happened to the b group?
