Henley 1 Posted March 29, 2020 Share My needs? One virtual course that I can ride over and over (e.g. the Figure 8 on Watopia Island of Zwift – of which I stopped membership some time back because of the high cost) I need no fance latest hotshot IT gimmicks, neither racing in groups, all over the world …) cheap and simple. My choices for free trials on my newly purchases Wahoo are: Sufferfest, Zwift, Strava Summit, Trainer Road, Fulgaz, RouvyListening thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duane_Bosch Posted March 29, 2020 Share RGT is free for the foreseeable future. And Rouvy seems to have extended its 14 day trial to a 30 day trail. Those should keep you occupied for the next little while. shaper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reme Le Hane Posted March 29, 2020 Share Why is strava summit in that list, its offers nothing of value and nothing for training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karman de Lange Posted March 29, 2020 Share Sufferfest has 45 day trail now during lockdown To make sure everyone can benefit from these plans, we're offering new users a free month in addition to the standard 14-day trial, so you can get oriented in the app and complete a 4-week plan for free. Just use promo code ALLINSUFPLAN when you create your subscription. Escapee.., C14, Duane_Bosch and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted March 30, 2020 Share I have a dumb trainer, with my PM being crank-based. As most virtual training apps/sites don't allow for my setup I never bothered much with the virtual world, and still don't. However, as Rouvy offers me a 14-day trial I'm happy to continue using their app, as it also allows me to use my current setup. I have found that riding a route I know, helps to get over the long time in the saddle. I find watching a TV show takes my mind off riding, and it's only good for the long ride, aka don't care about the structured training. bmw1za 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detailed advice to this old toppie please!You don’t need companion to ride. Start Zwift app and confirm you are the user. It then goes to a screen where you link with your trainer, HRM, speed / cadence sensor etc. then click on let go. Next screen you choose the workout or free ride or whatever you want to do and start peddling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If if you dont need points and achevemtns kept jusy make up a new email every week and set the ftp to where you last were they have a distance limit of 35km - with the current lock down you will probably need at least 1 new email address per day of use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
