Incyclist
Free and open source
Ride real-world videos, any GPX route, or simply pick a spot on the map and go — on your computer, your phone or your tablet.
New
Incyclist is available for Android and iOS: ride real world videos and GPX routes, with the same workouts and the same activity history, on whatever screen sits on your handlebars.
What's new
Two more things that landed in recent releases.
Bluetooth trainers, power meters and heart rate monitors now work on Linux. Earlier releases had Bluetooth switched off on Linux entirely, because reaching the adapter would have meant running Incyclist as root.
Linux now joins Windows, macOS, Android and iOS in supporting the full range of Bluetooth fitness devices — started as a normal user, like every other app.
Get the Linux AppImageShift gears on a trainer that has none. Incyclist keeps the resistance matched to the gear you are in, using the trainer's own virtual shifting where it has it.
Shift with the on-screen buttons or the arrow keys on the desktop, with a swipe on mobile, or with a Zwift Click or Zwift Play controller on either.
Supported devicesKey features
Every ride can be combined with a structured workout, and every ride can be shared with other Incyclists.
Ride RLVs — videos recorded on real rides — with the resistance following the real gradient. Incyclist reads Ergoplanet (EPM), Tacx (PGMF) and KWT formats.
You can also build your own by pairing a video with a GPX track — how to do that.
Upload any GPX track and ride it in Street View, Satellite View or Map View — or import a route straight from your Komoot account.
Search for any location in the world and start riding there. At every junction you choose where to go — no downloads, no route hunting, just go.
Desktop only for now.
Pick one from the built-in workout library, import a Zwift workout file (.zwo), or sync the plan from your intervals.icu calendar.
Any workout can be ridden on top of a video, a GPX route or a free ride.
Other Incyclists riding the same route show up live, with their position and data next to yours. Start together, or simply meet whoever is out there.
Ride a route you have done before and your earlier attempts appear on the road ahead of you — the simplest possible way to see whether you are getting faster.

New on Linux: Bluetooth devices are now supported. Earlier releases could not use them at all.
You can use it for free
There is no subscription, no trial and no paywalled feature. If you enjoy the app you are welcome to donate an amount of your choice, but donating buys you nothing extra: it is entirely voluntary.
