HOW TO JOIN

Start by downloading the Zwift App and the Companion App to your smartphone, tablet, or laptop. 

 

On the Zwift Companion App, join the “Tri Town Boise” Zwift Club (instructions on how to join a Zwift Club here). All group rides will be posted on the Companion App as Events for the club.

 

To sign up for a ride (Event), click the plus (+) sign on the right side of the ride category (“E”). If you plan on attending a ride, please sign up in advance as we may cancel if not enough riders are signed up for any given workout.

Anyone can join the rides after the starting time, or leave early if needed. 

 

 

GROUP DYNAMICS

The Tri Town Boise Zwift club is structured as a “no-drop” group, meaning that all riders are kept together regardless of ability (for both Group rides or Workouts, we will use Category E -”Everyone”-). Ride at your pace and don’t worry about getting dropped or shooting off the front, Zwift will keep you in the vicinity of the group. 

 

 

COST

Zwift costs $200/year or $20/month. 

 

Other than the required equipment, there are no additional costs.

 

 

ABOUT YOUR RIDE LEADER

Ricardo Valverde is a USAT coach who joined the Tri Town team in 2019. He’s motivated by helping others find the passion and success in triathlon that he has found, while avoiding the mistakes he made as a self-coached athlete at the beginning of his triathlon career.

 

*Zwift Companion enhances the Zwift/indoor riding experience, allowing easier interaction with others (messaging, joining clubs/events, etc) or with the game itself (viewing maps, workout data and more). More info here.
