I’m about to receive a Van Rysel D500 indoor trainer with a Zwift cog mounted and zwift click. Planning of throwing my hard tail on there to get started.
I would like to know if anyone here has some solid advice for starting out in the electronic cycling world? What works? What doesn’t? What keeps it interesting?
Bonus: I would love to self host a little group of climbs on one of the many compatible software, but happy to pay a bit if privacy is respected. Any advice here is also appreciated :)
I use Zwift quite a bit, and some people I know love Rouvy (I see the allure, but overall I prefer Zwift).
What helps with indoor riding, for me, is the interaction with others. There’s a group on Zwift that does a 100 mile ride every Saturday morning - the distraction of chatting with people helps the time pass.
Neither one will replace outdoor riding for me, but it helps me stay in shape or even improve when I can’t ride outdoors for some reason.
