Tour de Zwift 2025
Tour de Zwift 2025, virtual motivation to keep you riding through winter.
The Tour de Zwift has been running since 2017, not as long as the Tour de France, but impressive nonetheless. Zwift call the Tour de Zwift 2025 a “celebration of discovery across all Zwift worlds!“
This year’s Tour de Zwift began on January 6, with six stages finishing on February 16. Unlike a stage race in the real world, the Tour de Zwift’s stages last a week. Not only do the stages last a week, but each one has four route choices, one of which is a run option.
Each stage has it’s own name, giving you an idea of what they are like. Week one is Rolling Start, followed by Rolling Heights, Cruise Control, Climbs, Loop the Loop and finally Endurance Quest. If you do miss any of the stages, fear not. There’s a catch-up week running from 17-23 February. If you miss any group ride stages, they will all be available to ride during the make-up week. During this week, make-up rides are scheduled every 30 minutes, with each stage following the next every half hour.
