Bike and Beer Jersey: Hit 'p' and enter "BIKEANDBEER"

Join the Minuteman Road Club for their Friday morning ride. Should take about 1 hour.
2 Laps of the London Loop (including box hill). That's 9.2 miles/loop.
Steady group pace of 2.5 w/kg on the flats and throat punching on Box hill.

LAP 1:
Steady 2.5 W/kg from the start to the Box Hill KOM
Attack Box Hill. The leader will act as a back marker on Box hill, maintaining a steady 3.5 w/kg up Box hill (around 8:45 for the segment)
After the banner at the top of box hill, if you are ahead of the leader, soft pedal at 1 w/kg until the leaders group catches you.
The leader will go back to 2.5 w/kg at the banner and sweep up those that are soft pedaling.

LAP 2:
Steady 2.5 W/kg until the start of the Box Hill KOM
Everyone should be behind the leader until we cross the line marking the start
of the Box Hill segment.
Then hammer time from the bottom of Box Hill to the finish line (around 5 miles)
Check out "box hill start to the finish line":

No waiting in event mode. You are either there or not. Make sure you 'pre-reg" for the event on the Zwift app or in game. No matter where you are on course you'll automatically be put in the ride 4min prior to start.
