Steering is enabled for ZRL races, but braking is only enabled in team time trials (TTT). TT bikes cannot be used in other ZRL race types. Refer to WTRL’s race settings for the full rules and any last-minute changes.
October 27: Round 1’s Spiral Summit finale
The final Round 1 race is a points race on Spiral Summit, covering 24.0 km and approximately 283.5 m of elevation. Sprint and climb points can shape team tactics, so looking only at finishing order is not enough to understand the result.
To prepare, explore eCyclingRank’s race pages and rider histories, and check Horizon for upcoming events when predictions are available. Not every WTRL race is necessarily covered by eCyclingRank; confirm the official details on WTRL’s Round 1 calendar.
