What do you need to participate and preliminary operations?

There are several ways to simulate on a GPX track with a smart trainer. Each of you will have your own preferred method, but we suggest two: via an Edge cycle computer and via the Tacx App. In any case, what should not be missing is an interactive trainer, such as the Tacx NEO 2T Smart or a Tacx FLUX S Smart or similar.

It is a lot of fun and it is social, as we are able to chat whilst riding and exploring the roads of Watopia and other new worlds or simulated real places where previous world championships have been held.
