No this is one cool VR cycling app.

Not sure which one they were using, but the on screen cyclists were linked to spinning bikes in the arena.

The public were having VR races at the Gadget show live today

A salutary lesson, don't leave your £4000 Specialized Dura Ace Di2 unattended or unsecured at a sportive sign on, otherwise it'll get pinched by some low life.

My neighbours son had his bike nicked at the start of the Liege Bastogne Liege sportive yesterday.

All those training miles gone to waste too.

Yep

Local Belgian police weren't interested

Although with thousands of cyclists participating in this sportive, its a bit like looking for a needle in a haystack
