Canadian RGT Championship Series is BACK!

Who’s ready to RUMBLE???

As you may have seen on social media, like last year some Canadian Universities have banded together to present a 4-weekend collegiate e-racing series. All the information on how you can race and help McGill take the coveted team classification are outlined in the exhaustive technical guide attached below.

  • Race 4: March 26th/27th Queen’s

In addition, for those unfamiliar with RGT, it is VERY different than racing on Zwift. If you are interested in racing, I would recommend a few training rides on the RGT platform to get used to the in-game physics. I attached some helpful resources about RGT below.



BONUS
@cmoonbike has made a collaborative playlist for the club this winter. Feel free to add your favourite tunes to the queue!

That’s all for now. Don’t hesitate to reach out with questions or help getting set up.

I did a test run of RGT yesterday. They’ve updated the app to be standalone, you no longer need the mobile and screen apps.

Here are the event links for this weekend! Please note that anyone racing on Virtual Power will not be counted towards team and individual omniums, as we have discovered the RGT Virtual Power is quite inaccurate - but we still encourage everyone to race.
