TrainerRoad Club on ROUVY

Hi all,

While an official TrainerRoad Community is on the long list of things for the TR team to set up, as an interim step, I’ve set up a TrainerRoad club on ROUVY to get us riding together—I’ve always found TrainerRoad and ROUVY to be quite community-focused, and as has been mentioned here before, you can easily be doing a workout on ROUVY and not see a single other rider out on the course so lets look to change that.

Quick context on how this works:

ROUVY has two social features—Communities (large, unrestricted groups) and Clubs (smaller groups capped at 30 members). Since ROUVY Clubs have that 30-rider limit and you can only be a member of one Club at a time, I wouldn’t want anyone to feel left out or forced to leave an existing club. Therefore, we’ll use this forum thread to cross-post all updates and routes so everyone can participate regardless.

  • Where to find it: Search for TrainerRoad under Social Clubs in the ROUVY app, or join directly via the TrainerRoad ROUVY Club Page to grab one of the initial 30 club slots.

  • Route of the Week: Every week we can pick and post a featured ROUVY route suggestions are always welcome—if you have a favourite local route from your home country on ROUVY, drop the suggestion in the thread and we can all go virtually visit!

  • Downloading Ahead of Time: I guess everyone knows this but It’s usually worth downloading the route video in the ROUVY app before jumping into your session

Looking ahead:

If there’s good traction, we can look at expanding into scheduled no-drop group workouts (where ROUVY’s rubber-banding keeps everyone together regardless of individual power targets) or even occasional club races.

If you run your TR workouts on ROUVY, drop a reply below and join in. Look forward to seeing you on the virtual road!
