[Closed] 'Riding' a gps route on a turbo trainer

Got a hilly tt coming up and have the route on gps. Wanted to know if there was any training app that lets me ride the course on my turbo first.

I use to be able to do it in the tacx tt4s software but they have subsequently stopped supporting the app so no way to get a Google earth activation code.

You can probably do it in the new tacx app but it runs off windows 10, and the only pc I have that is powerful enough to cope with the software runs windows xp.

Any other options out there? I have a tcx flux if that makes any difference

Bkool will let you do this, you have to upload the course to their server so it's not immediate but it works fine. You can probably get a week's free trial if you're not interested in paying.

Not sure about the Flux, but the Neo has support for control via a Garmin device. Link the trainer to a Garmin and follow the course, and the trainer should respond to the data. I'm not sure if it uses power or gradient to simulate hills etc, but it's worth a look/Google to see if your trainer will work this way
