Indoor cycling in the Northern Hemisphere has kicked into high gear. Zwift has launched its annual Tour of Watopia, and ROUVY is following suit with ROUVY FEST. This is the first time ROUVY has hosted something like this and on this scale.
What is ROUVY FEST?
ROUVY FEST is a two-week event giving riders the chance to ride alongside ROUVY ambassadors, including Visma | Lease a Bike pros Wout van Aert and Victor Campenaerts, Lidl-Trek riders Mattias Skjelmose and Derek Gee West, British hill-climb expert Andrew Feather, and leading international triathlete Kat Matthews.
The event starts 12th October.
Not only will you get the chance to ride with professional athletes, but with those who have brought the product to life, ROUVY CEO Petr Samek, and VP of Product, Marek Martin Matyska.
Why ROUVY FEST?
This is best explained by VP of Product, Marek Martin Matyska.
“The start of the indoor season is more motivating with others rather than riding alone so to kick things off this year we’re bringing everyone together.”
