Simon von Bromley thinks gamified indoor cycling, typified by Zwift’s virtual worlds, is the best thing since tanwall tyres.


BikeRadar’s chief smart-trainer tester argues that indoor cycling apps should learn from popular video games, such as Mario Kart, and prioritise fun over realism. 


On the other hand, Jack Evans wants to get fit, not have fun, on his turbo trainer. He prefers apps that focus on structured workouts, such as TrainerRoad. 


With Jack Luke mediating, the pair debate their diametrically opposed views on indoor cycling.
