Rouvy has people, though not as many as Zwift. I've just been trying Rouvy, as it happens, and I get three friendly virtual people cycling along with me / dropping me on the hills. I can turn them off, though, if I want...</p> <p>FullGas (or is it FullGaz?) is like Rouvy but without the people. (IIRC)</p> <p>A lot of these things let you try the app for a few days (7 for Rouvy) before you get charged. </p> Baldcyclist on "Virtual cycling apps" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=21665#post-377495 Thu, 28 Nov 2024 15:22:16 +0000 Baldcyclist 377495@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I'd also appreciate monthly, rather than annual costing as plan on dumping subscription over summer months. </p> Baldcyclist on "Virtual cycling apps" http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=21665#post-377494 Thu, 28 Nov 2024 15:02:22 +0000 Baldcyclist 377494@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I'm dumping my old spinbike and have bought a virtual trainer which I'll use with my road bike.</p> <p>Determined that when the spring comes round I'll be in better cycling shape for my 2 hour commute home - long distance walking and a wee bit mtb has been helping as well.</p> <p>I don't like the look of Zwift, too gamey and I don't like people. I've been looking at Rouvy, what other options do folks reccomend?</p> <p>I'd envisage 1-2 hour sessions probably once /twice a week in conjunction with the other stuff mentioned above. </p>
