Race CategoriesTeam Tag:
Would you kindly add CRYO-GEN to your name tag eg. DClarkson (CRYO-GEN) This makes it easier to see you’re a team mate amongst a group of riders. Tags can be added in Zwift profile settings.

Team Events
Discord:
The team use the Discord app to communicate with each other in events. This is really helpful in team racing but also adds an interesting social aspect to the group riding. The Discord app is available to download for free in the App Store. Once downloaded, please ask in your group or on the FB page for an invite to the Cryo-Gen Discord link, or for our Social Group rides we also have an open Discord channel and the link for that is embedded in the Companion App. Most team members have the app on their smart phone and use it with earphones.
When you start to ride with the team, following other team members via the Zwift Companion app makes it easier to invite you to the meet up rides and keeps you in touch with what other members are doing.

Questions:
Any questions then please just ask in either your chat group or main FB page. If it’s more specific and relates to something that may not be generally answered then please tag one of the admins as listed below.
Team Kit:
We have our own team kit on the platform which is issued by Zwift, until such time you are allocated this in your wardrobe you might like to represent the team wearing our previous kit so you are easily recognised As a Cryo-Gen rider, if you google Zwift jerseys and input TDP2015 you should receive the Tour de Pier kit which only Cryo-Gen have the code so it is still exclusive to us as a team.
