Some questions

Is there a beginners guide showing what everything on the screen means?

How long are each of the routes?

I see descriptions of routes - pretzel, hilly, mountain, etc - but I dont see “Richmond or Watopia” - where do I find this?

Does it always start you at the same place on the route?

Seems like the workouts are mostly geared towards training for an event (or doing 1+ hour rides)… how would you recommend using if you’re just looking for 30-45 minute workouts? Just ride and set goals? Create shorter interval workouts?

And many more  if needed.

More less the same starting spot each time.

You can create your own workouts, or just ride and do intervals when you like.

Cool, thanks! I really like the map for Watopia. Are there similar maps for the other courses? How do I just pick the course I want to ride?

Hopefully soon there will be no need to edit the world tage.
