All week I’ve wanted to ride the Zwift Scotland Rolling Highlands route. Today was the day. Late start at 4:24 PM but Scotland was still daylight. The previous time I rode this route was not long after it was available on February 3rd, 2023<\/a><\/strong>, my birthday. I believe that was an event and today was an open world ride. I rode two laps and then went straight when the route turned left. Not many Zwifters in Scotland, the nearby count was less than 500 most of the time. A couple of small groups passed me. When I veered off the route most of the riders were going the opposite direction. Two Strava top results: PR<\/strong>\u00a0on\u00a0Breakaway Brae<\/a>\u00a0(1:32) and 2nd fastest time<\/strong>\u00a0on\u00a0Rolling Highlands<\/a>\u00a0(18:58). Zwift reported two PR on the same segment: Breakaway Brae. I think I rode that segment three times. There was a 3.2 mile lead-in leaving 5.5 miles for each lap. The first lap included 347 elevation. Lap 2 was 5.5 miles and the elevation gain was less. After veering off the route more elevation gain added up to 860 feet overall in 19.17 miles total. The map shows where I changed in the lower right with the square loop. ZwiftInsider.com link to the correct route<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n
