SISU iTT and SISU CLIMB - MARCH ANNOUNCEMENT
Following four exciting weeks of racing in February in which new series champions were crowned, we’re excited to announce our March SISU iTT and SISU Climb series routes.
SISU iTT
It’s you, your TT bike, and a race against the clock. It’s the ultimate test of individual strength and stamina. So grab your bottle, bike, and aero socks, and join us each week in March for the next round of the SISU iTT series.
The SISU iTT series is a weekly race, competed on a new route each week, and a five-week general classification series battle for the Johtaja leader’s jersey. There are several opportunities each week to plan your perfect racing schedule with midweek and weekend time slots.
Following the recent release of the beautiful new Scotland map, get excited to test your legs on the newest roads on Zwift over the final two weeks of March!
We begin the month in Richmond with a flat and fast 14 km route around The Fan Flats. Then, don’t forget your climbing legs the following week, from 8-13 March, as we head to Austria, where riders will tackle the Leg Breaker climb two times as we race around the Innsbruckring circuit. Next is a six-lap ride around the short and punchy LaGuardia Loop in New York before we finish the series with two weeks in Glasgow and the Scottish Highlands. The first of these is an 18.3 km time trial on the Glasgow Crit Circuit, followed by a two-lap race around the Loch Loop the final week in March.
Not that we’re counting, but riders will tackle 732 meters of elevation over 84.4 km of racing over the five thrilling weeks of time trialling this March. Don’t miss it!

SISU Climb
For those brave enough to challenge themselves on routes that go up, the SISU Climb series will test riders!
SISU Climb is a four-week general classification series every weekend in March. The Johtaja leader’s jersey winner will be the rider with the shortest cumulative time over the four weeks, with a winner crowned in each grade and an overall victor.
We will start March in London with one lap around the Greatest London Loop and its challenging 2 km Leith Hill climb. The final three weeks will all be in Watopia. First up is a 24.7 km loop around Legends and Lava with a mountaintop finish up the Volcano KOM, followed by the 30.2 km Mountain Route the next week. Finally, don’t miss the finale as we wrap up the March SISU Climb series on the steep ascents of the Muir and the Mountain.
Competitors can look forward to 120.2 km of exciting racing during the March SISU Climb series, with 2,277 meters of climbing.
