For the late winter/early Spring period, we have 10 rides from Thailand (names not yet defined, so please use their numbers) & 7 new rides from the recent January training camps on the Costa Blanca, which are the priority if you see them pop up in the ride menu. All of these are now in their final stages so expect new routes to come into the menu at a fairly fast pace over the next two weeks.

I wonder if/what the arrangements are with the teams

To add to this, just out of interest, I looked back into the dark ages of Tacx RLV production & it looks like we did our first Pro…

Cheers all for the testing of the pro team rides, l've now marked these as good to go!

Next to focus is on these Asia team filmed rides from Thailand; some of these rides have quite tough-looking terrain with some very technical descents. If there are going to be issues with skipping, it will be on these.

This next week we will publish a 3 stage 95km ride from the Kansas trip & something from Korea is going into production for the summer. Its good to revisit Kansas, endless gentle rolling hills with almost no traffic....its zen! :-)

100%/100% Connected ANT+

A2024.05 v2 069 Canalside Ride (Thailand)
Good video. There is a feeling of the road, which disappears at 27.25 km per 100 m.
A2024.04 v1 029 Sky Lane (Thailand)
Same good video. There is a feeling of the road.
I saw two planes) One was landing, the second was taking off.
Both videos are great for recovery training or sprinting.

Good video. Strong post-processing. There is a halo around the pillars and trees in the blue sky. But in the shadows it is clearly visible. The gradient is similar to the video. There is no road feeling.

Bit of a lost in translation here, do you mean the road feel was out of line for you or that felt it?

Yes your right regarding the edit, I did a bit of a HDR look for this one, I might revisit it! :-)

At a distance of about 27.25 km from the start, there is a small section of about 100 m of bad road, but the road feeling does not change. Continues like good asphalt.

I have done Canalside Ride, Mae Salong Tea Plantations Part 2, Rive Kok, Sky Lane with no issues.

Today I did the Bangkok Canals. There could be possibly a road feel in the section between 14 and 18 km.

After 28km the video stopped. But I could do the last 4km with a fixed picture, Before driving I have downloaded the video.

No problems, all good. The hill at the end was a very nice treat. Plenty of dogs & cats on the road :)

v2 055_Monjam Tea Plantations
Again all good. A small section with road-feel which was unnecessary for my taste. Undulating gradients in the climb, interesting. Sometimes the gradient looked very steep which was cool. At times it actually was steep :D

I've done a different much more natural colour edit on it today. I think it had a filter added twice by accident; Just now feeding it back through the redaction & v2 of this ride should look a lot better.
