EVENTS: City Criterium Course
Given the realistic braking and positioning physics, it would be great to have a crit course with 90 degree turns. Would also be great for training as you would need to hammer out of each turn.

This is a great idea, there are established city centre crits in the UK that could be used rather than just taking Glasgow.
Guildford Crit has been used in national level events for BC and has a technical route that requires strategic positioning and a cobbled climb.
GPX fie of the course should be easy to get hold of, I have one of the old course, it has been extended in recent years to follow the hughstreet further up.
Farnham also used to host a very popular towncentre crit

Imo, the Glasgow circuit was the best crit course on Zwift. It has 14 turns and 2 hills (ish)... fewer turns would be necessary in TPV, so maybe 7 or 8? I like 1 or two hills as well. North Lake currently has two and that is good. 3-4km would probably be a good length.

How many corners and hills do you think would be a good number? And how long is each lap of your ideal course?
