My granddaughter watched me on Zwift and wants me to set up her bike to do it. Since Zwift is no longer accepting child accounts, does anyone have a good alternative?
Zwift is honestly the best because of the gamification - it just makes riding a lot more fun and engaging (especially for kids). If you are okay with paying, Zwift would be your best bet, it’s just no longer free. Both Rouvy and MyWhoosh do have some sort of XP/coin system but it isn’t as built out as Zwift. MyWhoosh is a pretty decent free alternative
Free accounts get at least 25km per month. It’s easy to exceed this. If, for instance, you do a ride of 20km and then end it, the next ride will carry on past the 25km point until you end that ride.

Sadly because zwift looks like a Nintendo game, it’ll be hard to top it for a child. Think they could ride 25km each month? Just rock the free account for a bit?
With a soon to be 5 year old that’s discovering riding with pedals, I’m bummed they’ve killed the kids off.
I wonder how many kids actually ride more than 25 km per month?
Looking out my window IRL, not many that I see.
