Every road on Earth, on your indoor trainer. AnyMap builds a 3D world from real map data. Climb the great passes of the big tours. Lap the race tracks you know from TV. Ride through New York, Paris or the road outside your door. Race riders from all over the world, or jump on for a quick workout. Every rider rides in the same world. Meet them on the road. THE WHOLE WORLD • Ride any road or path on the planet, in 3D • Famous climbs, like the 21 hairpins of L'Alpe d'Huez • Race tracks, cities and quiet country roads • The grade of the road sets your trainer's resistance, so you feel every climb ROUTE BUILDER Tap a few points on the map. AnyMap finds the roads between them and builds the route. Give it a name, and ride it in about two minutes. Your route is there for every rider. Already have one? Open its GPX file from Strava, Komoot or Garmin Connect, or a KML from Google My Maps. RACING • A race starts every 15 minutes, so there is always one coming • Make your own race: pick the route, the laps and the start time • Ride in the draft: stay on a wheel and save up to 45 % of the drag • Score points at the KOMs, sprints and finish of official races • Set a reminder, wait for the countdown, and go • Talk to other riders in the live chat WORKOUTS • More than 200 structured workouts, from an easy spin to all-out intervals • Recovery, endurance, sweet spot, threshold and VO2 max • Each workout sets the power for you, at your own level, and tells you what it is for • Build your own: stack blocks, ramps and intervals in watts or % of FTP TRAINING PROGRAMS Eight programs, from beginner to professional. Up to 12 weeks and up to four rides a week. Each week asks a little more, with rest when your body needs it. Get fit again, gain power, get ready for a gran fondo or a race season. ERG MODE No plan today? Set the watts and go. The trainer holds the power, however fast you pedal. Change it by 5 or 25 watts with one tap. KNOW YOUR FTP Find your FTP with the guided ramp test or the classic 20-minute test. After every ride, AnyMap checks your FTP. Ride a new best, and your zones move up at once. STATS • Every ride saved, second by second: power, heart rate, cadence and speed, on the map where you rode • Your power curve: your best power for every duration • Time in each zone, day by day, and your streak of weeks • Rides, kilometers and time, against the month before • Your form, from tired to fresh, and your FTP over time STORIES AND ACHIEVEMENTS • Share every ride, week and month as a story • Earn achievements for distance, climbing, races and power • See other riders' profiles, achievements and stories WHY RIDE INDOORS No cars, no red lights, no falls.
