I am starting my World Cycling Tour on a Indoor Smart Bike Trainer on 6. July 2024 and will update my progress here daily on this site.
You can follow my progress further down on this site…
I had planned such a journey for many years, but for some reason it was not possible to finalize my dream.
Modern equipment and software make it possible to ride such a World Tour from home, and I will not miss the chance to do so 🙂
I was using BKOOL until Oktober 2025, but sadly this software package was discontinued and bought up by ROUVY.
Sadly, Rouvy does not allow me to create my own routes.
At the moment I am using
as it allows me to create 3D routes myself and riding along these 3D routes is much more fun and entertaining.
I am set now and I am continuing my ride around the globe.
You can see all my rides documented below.
This is my first ride:
Vladivostok to North Cape

Estimated time to ride: ∼ 500 hours
Why cycling indoors ?
Indoor cycling has many benefits compared to outdoor cycling:
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Absolutely Safe, NO dangerous traffic
- NO crazy scrupulous drivers (have a good share of this one)
- I was once run over by a drunkard driver, which left me with a paralyzed right arm
- NO bad weather
- NO camping, sleep every day in a fresh cozy bed
- NO carrying of food, water, clothing, camping gear, spare parts…
- NO bike maintenance and searching for spare parts
- Riding or pausing at any time
- NO regulations, permits, Visas …
- No traveling costs and problems
- NO dogs
- NO bandits (have my share of this one)

Modern indoor smart bike trainers and software simulates the rides to 100%, it is a real ride, just inside your home.
