m-squared Posted February 15, 2019 Share I’m still procrastinating about getting a new laptop that can handle it, so still using the older normal options.... which tbh is fine for me seeing I hardly watch the rouvey Screen other than to see the stats So far I have only used it to follow workouts given to me via Training peaks, works well, Riding the routes feel super hard, just not sure if its all the short routes with lots of climbing I have chosen, considering getting a ANT stick and cheap 32" TV to do the whole Paincave thing. I started using Rouvy with my laptop and an ANT+ stick. It's quite a powerful machine but a business model so no fancy GPU. It struggled to keep up. I've switched to my Samsung phone and that runs flawlessly (and has ANT+ built in). I have a simple tripod with a phone mount on top to hold the phone in front of the bike. I'm looking to eventually get a Sammy tablet as it seems to be the best option. Dexter-morgan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m-squared Posted February 15, 2019 Share The AR function is still far from a Zwift alternative, but is still in a Beta state. On a side-note: Who is MeatyHead on Rouvy? Looks like he is a Saffa, owns 60% of the track records and averages 4.5 W/kg on 3 hour rides.. I would also like to know who MeatyHead is. He/she's flying the Saffa flag high.

m-squared Posted February 15, 2019 Share I have created a route that we ride from Boksburg, Bruma, sylvia's pass, sovereign str and back but has not made it Public. How do you make it public? I would be keen on that route... even though it's just outside my front door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dexter-morgan Posted January 6, 2020 Share I think Canyondale is 17km but pretty flat, I think 340m elevation gain.How far is that canyondale ride....

JanJan Posted January 7, 2020 Share I would be keen to join a 'group' ride a few evenings. Also a nice to have would be Teamspeak just to help dictate pace a bit. Dexter-morgan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexter-morgan Posted January 7, 2020 Share Good morning Guys, I have created an online race tomorrow evening, 19:00 - Canyonville(rouvy) very flat.Please go and download the route first, please invite an many as possible - smart trainers only, this will be more of a group ride than a race.

HdB Posted January 7, 2020 Share do you know how to enable this?I know a lot of people use Discord when riding on Zwift, so could be another option?No idea how it works, but found this basic guide:https://zwiftinsider.com/using-discord/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
