Today I went to ZwiftInsider.com and looked at the Rebel Routes. There are numerous ones to choose from and I selected the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/zwiftinsider.com\/spiral-into-the-volcano\/\">Watopia Spiral Into The Volcano<\/a><\/strong>. The full route is 34.6 miles but I planned on riding around 25 miles to avoid the big climb in the last 2 to 3 miles. ZwiftInsider.com listed the turn-by-turns and I printed them off to keep track and make the turns when needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The route begins at the spawning point in downtown using the Volcano Flat route. After starting the ride I rode under the banner and made a u-turn to setup the turn-by-turns. According to the instructions there are only 6 manual turns with the rest following a route. But the turn-by-turn list didn&#8217;t say which ones were manual and I didn&#8217;t understand that when a turn comes and only one option pops up in Zwift there may be a turn hidden that I should take. On my next Zwift Rebel Route ride I check all of the turn pop ups for options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With that mistake I got off the route several turns into the ride. I&#8217;m not sure which turn I didn&#8217;t take but I rode numerous times on portions of the Volcano Circuit and Volcano Circuit CCW, Italian Villas, and Downtown. The video shows all of the turns I took. Below is the list from ZwiftInsider.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Right to Volcano Circuit<br \/>Right to Volcano Circuit CCW<br \/>Right to Volcano Circuit<br \/>Right (Straight) to Italian Villas<br \/>Right to 360 Bridge<br \/>Right to Sequoia Circle<br \/>Left (Straight) to Sequoia Circle<br \/>Right to Epic KOM<br \/>Left to Desert Flats<br \/>Right (Straight) to Desert Flats<br \/>Left to Downtown<br \/>Straight (Right) to Ocean Blvd<br \/>Right to Downtown<br \/>Right to Downtown<br \/>Right to Volcano Circuit<br \/>Right to Volcano Circuit CCW<br \/>Right to Volcano Circuit<br \/>Right (Straight) to Italian Villas<br \/>Right to 360 Bridge<br \/>Right to Sequoia Circle<br \/>Left (Straight) to Sequoia Circle<br \/>Left (Straight) to Downtown<br \/>Left (Straight) to Downtown<br \/>Right to Downtown<br \/>Right to Volcano Circuit<br \/>Right to Volcano Circuit CCW<br \/>Right to Volcano Circuit<br \/>Right (Straight) to Italian Villas<br \/>Left to Sprint<br \/>Left (Straight) to Sprint<br \/>Left to Volcano Circuit<br \/>Right to Volcano Circuit CCW<br \/>Right to Volcano Circuit<br \/>Left to Volcano Circuit CCW<br \/>Left (Straight) to Volcano<br \/>Left (Straight) to Volcano KOM<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I don&#8217;t remember riding on Desert Flats and the Epic KOM. I probably missed those turns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The route I rode included 607 feet of climbing, versus the 1064 feet for the complete route. I stopped after 25.21 miles. Strava shows these top results: <strong>PR<\/strong>\u00a0on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/8572831288\/segments\/3061392499612913780\">Volcano Flat Reverse 1 Lap<\/a>\u00a0(27:07) and <strong>2nd fastest time<\/strong>\u00a0on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/8572831288\/segments\/3061392499611680884\">Volcano Flat Reverse 1 Lap<\/a>\u00a0(27:09).
