The Espada Challenge (Embargo April 30)
jpg
A blazing-fast RoboPacer has gone rogue, and was last seen tearing up the roads near Saddle Springs! Some say it rode like Miguel Induráin. Could it be? Whoever it is, you’ll have to bring your toughest riding if you want to try and keep up—it’s your chance to see how long you can stick with one of the fastest RoboPacers in the game!
Don’t miss this chance to relive history and ride the Espada, Pinarello’s iconic time-trial machine that “Big Mig” rode to smash the hour record in 1994. From May 3–5*, you can test your legs against the legendary Spaniard. “Big Mig’s” RoboPacer will churn out a phenomenal 6.3 w/kg, or 510 watts, for an hour 🥵! How long can you keep up? It’s the perfect chance to set your own hour PR.
*Date range is for UTC. Other time zones might have a slightly differing date range.
Ride Like King (Embargo May 8)

In 2007, at the vibrant age of 73, King Liu embarked on a transformative 927 km, 15-day cycling journey around Taiwan. His mission was simple yet profound: to showcase the transformative power of cycling on personal well-being, community ties, and economic vitality. Now, as we gear up for the 16th edition of this beloved campaign, we're not just participating—we're celebrating a movement.
Ready to make your miles matter? Warm-up rides will take place across road and gravel from May 13–16. Participate in the RLK events from May 17–19, and you'll unlock the exclusive Ride Like King 16 kit and enter to win a limited-edition RLK16 jersey signed by King Liu himself.".
