Awesome @norbs

Has the ZWIFT exodus started after the recent 33% price rise???
Firstly, and most importantly, I wanted to say thank you and give a warm welcome to the huge number of people who have recently joined indieVelo. With more than twice as many riders this week compared to last , I'm humbled by the continued support for our connected community and its collective vision for the future of cycling esports.

Seems that way. 3 of the Culburra crew have moved over. My Zwift doesnt expire until Dec, so plenty of time to see what iV is like. That said, I have paid for 2 months to help support it whilst I look.

Also, grabbed a set of these to try out.

Sadly not wireless, but you cant have everything.

i think that's a key reason that RGT failed.. you were almost exclusively riding with bots. If you can jump online and be riding with people, or even better, people you know, then half the battle is won.. maybe?

noticed on their last update that they now have an AppleTV version of IndieVelo, but only available to their Founders members. Now tempted to drop some $$ to try it out.

How often do you guys use iV? The lack of humans is the only thing frustrating me now.

Got the controllers. Interesting with virtual gears.

i have currently used it zero times :D
i have it installed on my tablet, but while it runs, it's getting about 10 fps :/

your lack of humans experience is why pretty much every other platform seems to fade away. :( I can't blame them for starting out that way, since that's exactly what Zwift did in their first year or so.
