I was gonna ride this morning after dropping The Younger Boy off at work, but the wind was buffeting the 3800 lbs of Dodge, so I figured it would make my bike ride a whole lot of no fun. So I rode in the garage instead. I have a week left of Wahoo Systm, so I took advantage of their recent acquisition of RGT to try it out. Turned out somebody had already uploaded an 8 mile stretch that I've ridden hundreds of times, so I thought I'd try that.

My opinion: Meh. The gradient profile is right, but the scenery is blah and repetitive and the graphics are primitive. They provide a bunch of bots to ride with, but I ended up riding the last two miles with nobody within several hundred meters ahead or behind - what's the point of the bots if they aren't anywhere near? I guess if I'd never ridden on Zwift, RGT would seem great. Overall it didn't convince me to re-up the Wahoo subscription.
