Anyone tempted with Training Peaks Virtual?

Just wondered if anyone has been tempted to jump over to TP Virtual since their acquisition of Indie Velo?

I have TrainingPeaks for tracking my rides and all the other metrics, but TP Virtual not really what Iā€™m after. It looks just like what Indievelo did when I tried it and appears to be the same routes.

My alternative was Fulgaz until that was unceremoniously dumped over to Rouvy. It had all of the routes that were important to me (the mountain routes I would ride in real life) and they were nearly all very accurate to the real thing. On the day of the announcement I scrapped my membership with Fulgaz citing that sale.

That said Fulgaz had its faults too, if you cared about the leaderboards there were many very dodgy results there, which is not much different to the likes of Alpe du Zwift which has lots of dubious performances daily.

I also tried Rolla, it looks great and the riding feel seems to be fairly realistic (not too fast) but it also needs work and the updates to it are enormous and take ages to download.
