Wednesday morning virtual ride with Rouvy

This is a recurring LVCC virtual ride, at 10 am every Wednesday during the Fall & Winter season. If you RSVP to this ride and see an announcement of an outside LVCC ride on the same day, please check the attendees list below to see if others, including the ride host, have opted to ride outdoors instead. I will make comment if I am not doing this virtual ride, but not delete in case someone else wants to take the lead.

If you have previously participated in virtual rides using Rouvy and Discord, you know what to do. If you are new to this, then your first step should be to read this document: LVCC Virtual Rides

Each week, I will publish in this Meetup, the name of the Rouvy ride that we will use. Launch the Rouvy application and search for this route. When the ride page appears, choose “Just Ride”. After waiting for it to load, you’ll see the start line, with your bike and avatar.

When you start pedaling, as soon as you see your avatar start to move, hit the pause button (“||”), at the upper right hand corner of the screen. As other riders enter, you’ll see a list of them on the left side of the screen. When everyone is ready, the ride host will announce the start of the ride, just as they would on an in-person ride.

If you plan to connect to the other riders using Discord, you should do this before joining the Rouvy ride, as Rouvy only runs in full screen mode or join Discord on a separate device like a smart phone or tablet.
