WHY SWITCH

Where RideTheBound goes further than Rouvy.

Gamification that actually hooks you

Rouvy shows you video of a road. RideTheBound adds real Strava segments, weekly events with leaderboards, flow state detection, and a post-ride geography challenge that makes you come back tomorrow.

GeoChallenge — unique to RideTheBound

Choose a mystery route in Free Mode and the location stays hidden until you guess it on a world map — up to 5,000 points based on accuracy. Rouvy shows you where you are from the start — no mystery, no game.

Free vs €180 per year

Rouvy charges €14.99/month. RideTheBound is free to start with real terrain, Bluetooth support, Strava sync, real segments, and weekly events — no credit card required.
