It\u2019s cold. It\u2019s wet. Maybe it\u2019s even snowing. Outside is always the best side, of course, but sometimes the only realistic option is to put your bike on the trainer and get after it inside. Today\u2019s sponsored podcast sees Levy sit down with Marek-Martin Matyska, Product Director at Rouvy, to chat about all things indoor training.<\/p>\n
Founded in the early 2000s by two brothers in the Czech Republic, Rouvy has grown to offer thousands of routes across six continents, from legendary European climbs to North American epics and scenic tours of New Zealand. Have you ever ridden in Namibia? Me neither, but now you can teleport yourself to the coast of Southern Africa at the push of a button.<\/p>\n
Matyska explains Rouvy\u2019s total focus on realism, how they\u2019re able to include so many ride options, and whether gravel and singletrack are on the menu. He also details the new Route Creator feature that allows users to build (and edit) their own realistic video routes while adding augmented reality features, and Levy has to ask if he\u2019s able to add chasing UFOs or zombies for \u201cextra motivation.\u201d<\/p>\n
