Hello,
Has anyone here used Zwift the virtual reality bike training computer software?
It allows the cyclist to experience simulated riding conditions on their computer screen visually and to race against other riders.
Zwift came to my attention after seeing the GCN boys racing against Jens Voight on Youtube via the application. Apparently you don't need a full on digital turbo-trainer just any ANT+ devices like speed sensor or power meter, i'm not sure if a smart-phone to control it is required however.
I downloaded Zwift but my computer OS is a bit out of date so haven't tried tinkering with it yet. If it functions as i envisage then home training will become a whole lot more enjoyable.
