It’s not always easy to start the New Year off on a good foot – or pedal – but these 6 stages of the Tour de Zwift could be your ticket to setting your winter training in motion. Over the next 8 weeks in Watopia, join what Zwift calls their biggest party of the year as cyclists (and even runners) use the fresh dawning of a new year as motivation to see if 2025 will be the year they commit to consistent training.
Remember getting in those winter miles inside now means summer smiles on the bike outside!
Plus, 50% off on Zwift Play controllers if you are looking to put a little extra gamification into your indoor training. Today only.
2025 Tour de Zwift, 6 stages to kickstart your indoor training
“Pedal through iconic Zwift routes, tackle exciting climbs, and soak up the unbeatable energy of the community all January long! With six stages packed with fun and fitness, each ride is a chance to feel the thrill of Zwift’s biggest party of the year.”
Whether you’ve already been out slogging through cold winter rides, haven’t built up the motivation to sit on the trainer this first week of the New Year, or heaven forbid you actually live somewhere warm and still need motivation… this new 2025 Tour de Zwift could be the perfect way to get your base training back on track.
Starting today, the Tour de Zwift offers six training stages, each at three distance levels to head out onto the virtual roads of Watopia with other cyclists. All you have to do is pick your distance – short, standard, or long – then hop on one of the hourly group rides each day during its Stage. Then, you’ll earn some ‘unlocks’ along the ride – like special TdZ socks midway through Stage 2, a beanie after Stage 4, and the full event ride kit once you complete all 6 Stages.
- Stage 1: Rolling Start, Jan 6-12
- Stage 2: Rolling Heights Jan 13-19
- Stage 3: Cruise Control, Jan 20-26
- Stage 4: Summit Seeker, Jan 27 – Feb 2
- Stage 5: Loop the Loop, Feb 3-9
- Stage 6: Endurance Quest, Feb 10-16
Just 6 rides, reasonable distances, and not too much elevation. You can do it. It is just base miles, after all.
So, log in and crush out some base training. And if you are feeling overly ambitious, you can ride all 3 distances each week, for a total of 18 Watopia training rides, and earn extra 2025 Tour de Zwift Ultimate Challenge rewards…
