Since September last year, our teams of Zwifters have been battling it out in the WTRL Racing league across Cat A, B, C and D with no less than eight teams, all containing a range of number of riders – in total, we’ve had 66 riders taking part across all teams!
The Season finale on Tuesday night (Yep, Valentine’s day – that’s dedication for you!) bought the three-rounds of 6 races (18 races in total) season to a close. Some riders rode in more than one team each night, hence the total races are quite high for some! Our Cat A team only took shape in Round 2.
So, here are our Poole Wheeler Team Race Champions for 2023
Big thanks to all the captains who have helped organise the teams over the last few months. Special thanks to Ben Salvia for organising all the background admin of team registration – to Rachel for her weekly witty race reports!
