01 How it works

Lap the island. Any bike.

Bali is roughly 550km around the coast. Ride that far inside the challenge window, wherever you are, and you've finished the lap.

It doesn't have to be one ride. Every ride you log adds to your total, whatever the length. Outdoor rides, indoor trainer sessions and Zwift all count, and you never have to set foot in Bali.

02 The reward

Finish the lap. Get in the hat.

Every rider who finishes the full 550km inside the window gets one entry into the Bali Loop draw. Names are drawn at random, so it's about finishing, not how fast you rode.

04 The format

What is a virtual distance challenge?

A virtual distance challenge gives you a big total to reach over weeks or months, and lets you get there however suits you. Every run, ride or swim you log adds to your tally until you hit the target.

The targets are often real journeys: a lap of an island, a famous crossing, the length of a canyon. It turns ordinary sessions on your local loop into progress toward something you'd never do in one go.

Because you can split the distance across as many sessions as you like, it fits around work and life. Little and often gets you there just as surely as a few huge days.
