Quite surprised you have got a wilderness outside of the parks😃
Are you not taking photos from the Surrey countryside on your Z2 adventures
Brockwell park has never looked nicer!

What’s the main differences between rouvy and the other one with the video climbing which name has escaped me…
It’s going to sound (very) tragic but I quite like seeing other riders on the virtual road.

For me Rouvy's augmented reality feels big enough difference if we compare to Zwift. Difficult to say how big difference is with draft, comparing to Zwift. Rouvy have less riders than on Zwift, a lot less. Maybe that's why it's hard to tell what is difference with draft. Anyway Rouvy feels more real for me because of those video recorded ride's. Actually one big difference is with descents. If Zwift have uphill 10% then the downhill is 5% with 100% trainer difficulty. On Rouvy -10% is -10% and you can feel that, especially with Neo you really need to keep your legs moving to have resistance. Most of a time I just keep coasting.

Tommy the augmented reality in both Rouvy and Bkool show the other riders. They both have a wide variety of climbs and level/ downhill routes. Some with surprises. On a Rouvy Route called Avenue of the giants. Pay attention at mile 16!
Edit: here is a rider overtaking me me because I slowed looking for a coffee shop.

I am getting to know certain people I want to race against , anyone who has put a time in on a route you can pick as a ghost , no drafting them just a good workout and if others are on your ride you can try to catch them , honestly I really enjoy it , think I would enjoy bkool as well but fed up with cartoon world at moment

A perfectly acceptable reason for being scalped in my book Randy!
Zwift is just so easy isn’t it… too easy. Maybe that’s one of the reasons it has mass appeal even with the numerous gripes.
But I need to spread the old wings a bit for sure.

Maybe it’s just my perception but I’m sure it’s got colder here as the days gone on

Show some empathy. Think of poor @berty bassett suffering on the ski slopes and possibly burning his mouth on a hot cocoa that was a little too hot. Your chilly ride home from work pales in comparison.

"Only" +8C here tomorrow, but not supposed to be going below 3C overnight - it was still -3C when I left home this morning. So should be able to go in to work on the bike tomorrow.
