This is cool to hear about! I've been seeing and hearing about virtual rides since COVID hit and hadn't heard any follow ups on how they actually go. This sounds like a fun way to do it if you can't in person. Do you ride on a trainer indoor and interact with a screen or go out and pedal, upload a ride, and then see where you "went"?
