Winter Swift Meetups

2026-12-15 3:26 PM | Amy Juodawlkis (Administrator)

Hey CRW Zwifters! Tired of riding alone in your “pain cave”? Want some company while you’re grunting your way up Alpe du Zwift or exploring the Makuri Islands?

Join the CRW Zwift Meetups!


Starting in December, CRW’s VP of Rides, John O’Dowd, will be offering Zwift meetups on Saturday mornings at 9:00. We’ll start the season easy with mostly flat, short (<20 miles) routes. As the season progresses, we’ll increase the distance and elevation.

  • Each month will feature a climbing challenge, such as the Achterbahn, the Epic KOM, Alpe du Zwift, and culminating in March with Mount Ventoux.

  • Rides will be “no drop” using the “rubberband” option, so you can choose what pace you want to ride at.

  • We will use Discord to support one another as we overcome our training challenges.

  • Rides will be posted on the club calendar, but you can receive event invitations via the Zwift Companion app on your phone.

To participate, you must:

  • Have Zwift

  • Be following “John O’Dowd CRW” on Zwift

  • Accept the event invitation on your Zwift phone app prior to the ride starting

  • Have Discord installed on a device if you want to join the event conversation

You don’t have to suffer alone on your trainer this winter! Join us and stay in shape for spring 2027!
