Zwifting With Neo

No viruses online

Zwift is a hugely popular app that gamifies indoor training and racing, in a very engaging way. It’s real physical exercise in a virtual world, measuring a rider’s power output (Watts/kg) to propel your avatar onscreen, and is used by pro cycling teams and amateurs alike.

At any time of the day there are 5,000 – 15,000 riders from across the globe simultaneously using the app; riding at their own pace, riding in pre-organised group rides (Meetups in Zwift speak), or racing.

Each day, riders are offered the choice of two virtual worlds to ride in – Watopia (always available) and a ‘guest’ world (changes daily), so there’s plenty of options in the courses and type of riding you want to do.
