The Rouvy segments aren\u2019t only climbs; they offer sprints and rolling roads to ride, and you can challenge your fellow riders in real time to see who\u2019s fastest, as with Strava Live segments in the great outdoors.<\/p>\n
With Rouvy’s segments, as with Strava’s, you can race against the segment leader, your friends\u2019 and your own best times, but rather than a dot on a map, each is represented by an avatar.<\/p>\n
While Rouvy has chosen to create its own segment network, Zwift<\/a> has Strava segments in its app. Initially, anyone could create Strava segments in Zwift, but as in the real world, these became a mish-mash of the useful and the confusing, so Zwift has now cut back to offer only its own segments.<\/p>\n New roads to ride Rouvy is scattering its segments over its existing roads, as well as a suite of new roads. Its Winter Training Camp Spotlight arrives on 8 December and continues into 2026, with pro-team inspired routes<\/a> in destinations including Girona, Calpe and (we guess not in the winter) Andorra.<\/p>\n If you\u2019ve been there, done that and don\u2019t fancy repeating it on the turbo, there are also new routes arriving between the tail end of October and mid-January 2026. They\u2019re in further-flung destinations including Sri Lanka, Bolivia and even Tajikistan, even if, unlike the real thing, the latter two don\u2019t add altitude acclimatisation<\/a> to the mix.<\/p>\n There\u2019s also a five-week climbing spotlight, running from 10 November to 23 December. It features five passes in the Dolomites: Passo Pordoi, Passo Sella, Passo Giau, Passo Fedaia and Passo Gardena. Rouvy\u2019s rides star Andrew Feather<\/a>, who\u2019s a Rouvy ambassador and should know his climbs because he\u2019s a former British hill climb champion.<\/p>\n New app features
