# Cycling RoboPacers

Our pace-setting bots give you someone to pace with directly from the Home Screen, and give you the chance to earn extra rewards too! When you ride in Zwift, you earn [Drops](https://support.zwift.com/the-drop-shop-SJ0kODv3F), when you ride with a [RoboPacer](https://support.zwift.com/en_us/pacer-groups-faq-ryiF4hdWw), you have the opportunity to earn even more! When you ride within 50m of a RoboPacer, you'll see a multiplier number next to a progress bar, every time the progress bar fills up, this number increases—up to a max of 2.5. The longer you ride, the more you earn.

As part of this experience, there are a variety of RoboPacers in Watopia our current guest worlds, with each RoboPacer offering a different pace to challenge you. After you've paired your devices, complete these steps to ride with a RoboPacer:

1.  On the Home Screen, scroll to the row titled **ROBOPACERS: 24/7 GROUP RIDES**.
    
2.  Select the tile of the RoboPacer you want to join.
    
3.  Select **START RIDE**.

RoboPacers appear in a glow color corresponding to their category rating (e.g. ![Red A](https://zwiftdmz-marcom-us-east.s3.amazonaws.com/support/EN/Cycling/Resources/Images/Advanced%20Features/A.JPG "A") being red ![Green B](https://zwiftdmz-marcom-us-east.s3.amazonaws.com/support/EN/Cycling/Resources/Images/Advanced%20Features/B.JPG "B") being green). A beacon also displays above the RoboPacer's avatar and next to their name on the Zwifters Nearby list.

If you're riding a TT bike when you join, you won't be able to draft. You'll be given the option when you join the ride to switch to the Zwift Carbon bike—so you can draft, or remain on the TT bike.

Ride On.
