Zwift has a feature called Meetup for group rides. It does require some instructions prior to joining. Note: I will need to follow you in Zwift before I can invite you to the event.
Anyone interested you will need to send me an email to . The email should Include your Zwift account name e.g. Tom Gorman (SBRA) and the event date.
In the email, let me know if I need to follow you or not in Zwift.
Through Zwift I will send you an invite to the event.
If you have any questions, contact me at trgorman1@gmail.com or text/call 631-960-1035.
Note: To really make this a social event, I will be using Discord to verbally communicate with the group. The link to my Discord channel: https://discord.gg/8aGCm5c. To test Discord anytime prior to the event, please contact me.
