There is no “i” in “team”.
Following last year’s successful Rise challenge, which was based on individual efforts, Uwe Koetter is proud to announce a cycling challenge focused on team effort.
The spin-off? A chance to form part of the Uwe Koetter team in the Coronation Double Century. If competing there is not for you, then simply join for the team rides and reap the benefits.
Getting started
To get started, you need a dumb (with speed or power sensor) or smart trainer and both Strava and Zwift accounts. Then join us at Uwe Koetter MeetUps on Zwift to participate.
If this seems a bit foreign to you, simply ask us and we’ll help you set up.
This challenge is all about the team and the Keep Together function on Zwift will ensure that no-one is left behind or speeds away. The social aspect of riding isn’t lost on Zwift, so download the Discord app to talk over your headset and mic.

How to qualify
If you’re an amateur rider older than 19, book your spot on the Uwe Koetter team by ranking in the top 12 competitors by the end of the competition. Team selection is based on several weighted factors, including performance (30%), commitment (30%) and teamwork (40%).
Other than the individual entry to the Double Century (subject to the event going ahead of course), spot prizes consisting of Uwe Koetter bibs, jerseys, socks, jackets and Zwift(R) memberships will be up for grabs.
We’re looking forward to having you ride with us. Challenge a friend, enter below and join our team!
