Ever wondered what a race up Alpe Du ZWIFT with 80 of the world’s strongest women looks like? Last Friday, I raced the Road to Sky course with the Movistar eTeam as Round 2 of the Zwift Grand Prix series. With a 7-minute cut off from the first finisher across the line…the pressure was on. Check out how it went!

  1. As I was watching in awe your W/Kg I was drawn to the video posted when we saw Rohan Dennis do the climb in an Zwift event , but what super impressive was your ability to push / hold with a what I can only image must have been your HR at V02 or very close . Bravo 🙌. Herculean effort, looking forward to more to come and seeing you moving up in position

  2. Cool, you are like a machine, I would never have thought that such a fragile girl had so much strength. I listened to a lecture by a cardiologist here, he said that having heart rate at such high values in the long term can have a bad effect on health, what do you think about this?

  3. So important to know the cheeky spots where you can put in a little dig on the courses. I always struggle with the start of this climb, it's a fine balance of going to hard up the first two turns.
    Good to see you back racing.

  4. Well done, great effort!
    Zwift has the WORST visuals and keeps losing tracking info! Looks like a bad cartoon from the 70s. I’ve tried them all and Rouvy kick butt on every app hands down. No lost connections, video feed of actual routes, not stupid cartoons. Riders appear far more realistic, not running over each other in a jumbled s-show. Pick your gearing and bike, no glowing rubbish.

  5. I just did Alpe for the first time 2 weeks ago (I'm a Zwift and generally could be considered a cycling newbie ) and my time was nowhere near that. lol wow what an effort!

  6. Don't forget about the neutralized bikes. One of the managers was once told that the neutralized bike stats were that of the Zwift Carbon bike with 30 mm wheels. If your best time was on a climbing bike/wheels that's definitely worth a minute on the Alpe! Nice work.
