Hi Derek,
Nice job! What app is that? I Google "the distance cycling app" and didn't find it. Is it a competitor to Strava?

@MikeWallaceDev it's called The Distance. it's not really a strava competitor. it lets you ride, walk and run on routes all over the world virtually. I'm really enjoying it.
Here's a link to it on the app store:

Apparently it's iPhone only. But do I understand correctly that this is a virtual route? Meaning that you did walk 16 km, but not on that road, and not in that shape?

@MikeWallaceDev that’s correct. I rode 66 km today on my trainer and the app gave me credit for it on that virtual route.
@derekvanvliet
Sorry, I wrote 16 km, I didn't have the number in front of me! 😂
66 km indoors is great! I find it more difficult to do distance indoors...
And actually, I'm kitted up and going to try Rouvy for the first time! Go go go!
@MikeWallaceDev that’s awesome - enjoy!
Mr. Teatime@derekvanvliet
aw, what a shame.
It's not too far from me. Was thinking to get my bike out on a nice weekend (if we get one soon) and try to draw something next to it.
...actually, I still should. need to make time to find a funny enough route, though.
