VeloPopuli — the people's indoor ride. Ride real GPX routes in 3D on your smart trainer. Free and open source. velopopuli.com · Guides

This is an early release. The 3D world, physics, workouts and progress tracking are well tested; real trainers and sensors are only now being tried, and the Windows and Linux builds have had little use. If something doesn't work, the app's Report a problem → Report on GitHub builds a diagnostics report for you — please send one.

What's new in 0.3.10

  • Laps. Ride a loop route as many times as you like. The app counts laps and distance as you go and times every climb on every lap. Thanks to Rallensooo for adding it.
  • Herne Hill Velodrome. The outdoor track in south London where the 1948 Olympic track races were held comes built in: 450 m round, banked into the bends, with the pavilion, stands and floodlights. Ride it anticlockwise, as they race it, or the other way round.
  • Find signposted road routes. Find a route now shows the signposted cycle routes from OpenStreetMap on the map, alongside the mountain-bike trails and famous climbs.
  • Your Strava routes. With Strava connected, the routes you've saved there are listed in Find a route, ready to ride. Reconnect Strava once to see your private routes.
  • Dreeve. Send rides to your own Dreeve server, race your Dreeve rides as ghosts, and turn any of them into a route (Dreeve 5.4 or later). Thanks to Jörn for adding it, and for making services like Strava and Dreeve pluggable.
  • Sensors are remembered. Trainers, power meters and heart-rate straps you've paired connect by themselves when the app starts, and Devices shows which ones it's still looking for.
  • Smoother bends. The rider follows a smooth curve through corners instead of turning in steps, and leans into the bends.
  • Linux Bluetooth. Sensors that wouldn't connect on Linux (BlueZ cancelling the connection) should now connect: the app stops scanning while it connects.
  • Ending a ride too short to save now says so, and a ghost on a loop route starts from the start.
