Zwift Sprint Jersey
It was pouring rain w/ embedded Tstorms here in Connecticut this morning. So I did a Zwift workout this AM instead of riding outside. With the new UI I can choose which world I can ride in. I chose NY. I like Central Park in early fall. My favorite time of year! Anyway, there were so few people, when the heavy hitters finished their ride I got a sprinters jersey. First time and probably the last. Hahaha.

I've gotten a sprinter's jersey a few times in Makuri, when the only people there are doing the slow paced pace partner rides. Sprinting through the pack to use their aero and take a slow sprint jersey may be cheap, but I need to do a few efforts as part of my pre-race warm up anyway, and it's the only way I'll get one. There was one race where, due to some sort of bug, I went into the pen wearing the sprinter's jersey and then I saw me wearing it the whole race. To everyone else, it looked like I was wearing my team jersey, but seeing the sprinter's jersey on me really kept me pump up. That stupid NYC KoM still kicked my but, but I liked riding it wearing the green jersey.

in my opinion the orange jersey is harder to get than the green ones. the green ones only need maximum power for a short period of time while the orange ones need a lot more time at a high power. color me impressed with your jersey.

I got the green jersey a couple of times back when I used to sprint in London. Should have taken a screen shot, there doesn't seem to be any record of it.

Congratulations! I don't think I've got a route jersey or a sprint jersey? In my early days of Zwifting I used to get so excited about getting an event jersey but my collection has grown so much over the past 5 or so years I don't really even notice which jersey I have on.
A Zwift jersey in real life riding would be exciting.
