QUESTIONS

Are the stages free?

Yes. Every stage is free in the browser, open from the start. No download, no account, no subscription.

What makes a stage different from a course?

A course is a lap you race on the leaderboard. A stage is a ride through a real place at a real moment: a famous race you can ride inside, or a journey through time with a card at every border.

Do I need a smart trainer?

No. A smart trainer gives you the climbs as resistance. A speed sensor on any trainer works with estimated power, and the arrow keys work on anything.
