Elevation Profile
I cycle the World Cycling Tour route entirely indoors, on a BH Exercycle Smart Bike in my off-grid studio in Valle del Lunarejo, Uruguay.
No traffic, no roads — just the route, the power data, and the elevation.
The first full route runs from Vladivostok, Russia to North Cape, Norway — 11,700 km across 15 countries.
I ride it in segments of 25 km daily, using Training Peaks Virtual, which simulates the real elevation and terrain of each stage.
The BH Exercycle Smart Bike connects directly to Training Peaks Virtual.
It transmits real-time power (watts), cadence (RPM), and heart rate data,
and the software adjusts resistance automatically to match the elevation
of the real route.
Training Peaks Virtual renders the real GPS route with accurate elevation simulation.
The bike resistance changes automatically as you climb or descend — no manual adjustment needed.
