Connect once from the Social tab. Rides post as virtual rides with the real circuit trace. Or export a TCX.

Monsoon Cycles, Colorado Springs · Updated November 4, 2026

Yes, rides upload to Strava. Connect Strava once from the Social tab and every finished ride posts itself as a virtual ride with the real GPS trace of the circuit you rode, so a lap of the Nordschleife draws the Nordschleife on your Strava map. If you would rather not connect anything, export a TCX file and upload it wherever you like.

Connect Strava in four steps

1. Sign in to the game with the email link. Strava needs the authorization tied to a rider.
2. Open the Social tab under the ride and click CONNECT STRAVA.
3. Authorize on Strava. You come straight back to the game and the button reads STRAVA: CONNECTED.
4. Ride. When a ride finishes it uploads on its own. The ride summary links to the Strava activity.

What arrives on Strava

Without connecting Strava

Export a TCX from the ride summary and upload it by hand to Strava, TrainingPeaks, intervals.icu or Garmin Connect. Going the other way, the game can take a .fit file of a real ride and turn it into a private course, and the .fit to .tcx converter and the .fit replayer are free tools on this site.

Strava questions

Does Gumwall Grand Prix upload to Strava?

Yes. Sign in, open the Social tab in the game, click CONNECT STRAVA and authorize it once. From then on a finished ride uploads to Strava as a virtual ride with the course's real GPS trace, your power, cadence, heart rate and speed.

Why does the ride show a real place on the Strava map?

Because the courses are real circuit centerlines. A lap of Snoredschleife uploads with the latitude and longitude of the Nurburgring Nordschleife, so the Strava map draws the real circuit. Rides upload as virtual rides, so they do not count toward segments on the real road.

Can I export a file instead?

Yes. Export a TCX file from the ride summary and upload it to Strava, TrainingPeaks, intervals.icu or Garmin Connect yourself. The site also has a free .fit to .tcx converter.

Do I need an account for Strava upload?

Yes, for this one feature. Strava's authorization has to be tied to a signed-in rider. Everything else in the game works without an account.

Does it upload heart rate and cadence?

Whatever was paired during the ride: power and cadence from the trainer or sensors, heart rate from a Bluetooth strap.
