Actually there is already 2 races in the dirt league on Tuesday so maybe not! (That's 4 races for some people!)

I know of a few guys, who do back to back racing. Sticky bottle(cyclechat), (dont know his current moniker) a very strong A cat
A youngAmerican Canadian fella, Thom Thrall with a super low cadence, but ranked N01 on Zwift last year-i think

I think even Cameron Jeffers does back to back racing too.

Or his ANT+ simulator does, at least
For me he did win the first Zwift racing event league. I know he used a hack to get the Tron bike- to level up the equipment.
Actual racing, he certainly was the best over the series of events.

Yeah - I'm sure he's a good rider, but he did get banned from British Cycling events for 6 months (I think) for that particular cheat.
You'd have thought someone that good would be perfectly capable of putting in the ~50 hours climbing needed to earn the Tron bike.
His biggest mistake was probably making YT videos about it
Obviously it's not a problem winning back to back races if you're in Cat A - fill your boots, there's nowhere else to be upgraded too!

It was all a brouhaha, there were no rules in place when he did the hack. BC created the rules after, then back dated the enforcement to snare CJ
I think he only did it due to joining Zwift too late to get the Tron bike in time for the race series.
all water under the bridge now. He's a Pro on the road and doing his YT thing
Another handicap Chop race. Felt a bit sick before the start, so quickly had some carbs 
Tough race today, with heavy gym legs, feel tad crook. Held onto my pack but faded in the last third of a mile to finish low down. We did beat all the other cats
Enjoy

Andrew's moving up to Cubs next week, and they meet on Tuesday evenings, so I'm probably out of ZRL action for the foreseeable future... 
Had a lovely ride in the Staffs lanes last night, including a bit of a sprackle on Leigh Bank (over 1100W according to Strava's finger-in-the-air power algorithm). Had a few errands to run and a bit of work to do once I'd dropped the kids off, so I only got out for 90 minutes at 18:30. Need to reacquaint myself with Zwift...

This was so much fun. Thought I'd found the shortest race on Zwift with the LaGuardia 4.3km, but no.
Micro Mountain Massif at 2.1km (no drafting). The most fun you can have (on Zwift) in 3-4 minutes.

I decided to hit the flat with 250 Watts (hoping to get rid of any super-lights) and then kill it to the max on the climb (to get rid of any heavies). One guy was 13s ahead at the start of the climb. Took 45s to nullify that then added an 18s lead up the rest of the climb for 🏆

Note that you were three seconds faster up that climb on the CCC run-out. I'm guessing you save your best performances for the higher quality opponents that Peter and Nick proved to be!

Exactly that. I was a bit fresher on Tuesday, having had Monday and Tuesday off the bike. Tiz true though if you're chasing someone there's always that carrot to dig a bit deeper. Apart from gold, my target today was to increase 60s power on ZP, which I did, but not by quite as much as I wanted.
