A fun, free virtual cycling platform

Virtual cycling should be fun and accessible to anyone in the world. The cycling community has given me so much, and this is my way of giving back.

It's free, and it stays free

No trial, no card, no tier above this one. OpenCycle runs entirely in your browser, so a ride costs almost nothing to serve — which means the things usually locked behind a subscription are simply in the app: structured workouts, riding with friends, .fit export, all of it.

So go and take it for a ride. If something breaks, or you think of something it ought to do, come and tell me — there's a Discord full of riders doing exactly that, and I read all of it. Bring your bugs, your ideas, your best screenshots. And above all, have fun out there.
