Ride the Alpe d'Huez from your living room.
WheelRid3 is a virtual cycling game that opens in your browser. You connect your smart trainer, pick a route or a workout, and pedal in 3D. Alone or with others.
Access by invitation during the beta. Works in Chrome and Edge, with an FTMS-compatible smart trainer over Bluetooth. The game interface is in French for now.

Ride, train, race
Three of the game's five modes, all launched from its home screen.
Ride
Ten 3D routes, from the great mountain passes to the Vincennes and Longchamp circuits. You set the scenery, the time of day and the weather, and shift through 24 virtual gears.
- Mini-map and elevation profile
- Your own GPX file
- Ghost of your best ride
Train
41 workouts in ERG mode: the trainer sets the power, you follow the countdown. Your FTP sets every target.
- 13 categories, from recovery to VO2 max
- Built-in FTP tests
- Coach Max cheers you on during efforts
Live race
Create a room, share the code, and meet up to six riders on the same road. Live standings, chat, group voice and awards at the finish.
- Group start
- Timed sprints and summit
Mountain passes, coast, circuits
Ten real routes built from GPX files, with relief and aerial photos from IGN, the French mapping agency. There is something for climbers and for those who prefer going round in circles.
Not alone on the road
One room, one code, and your colleagues or friends are there. You talk by voice, you type, you tease each other on the leaderboard.
- Group voice: a badge lights up when someone speaks.
- Free chat: type during the effort or in the room.
- Group workout: same intervals for everyone, scaled to each rider's FTP.
- Awards: best sprint, best one-minute effort and biggest improvement, in watts per kilo.
Frequently asked questions
What gear do I need?
A computer or tablet with Chrome or Edge, and a smart trainer that speaks the FTMS protocol over Bluetooth. A Bluetooth heart rate strap is a plus.
Does it work on iPhone or with Safari?
Not for now. Bluetooth in the browser is not available on Safari or on iPhone. Use Chrome or Edge on a computer or on Android.
Is the game available in English?
For now, the game interface is in French. This website is available in English too.
Is it free?
During the beta, access is by invitation and no payment is requested. Pricing has not been decided yet.
Are my workouts sent anywhere?
No. Your history stays in your browser, on your device. You can export it as FIT or CSV, or send a workout to Strava when you decide to.
Why do I need an account?
Each tester has personal access, sent by e-mail. It is what makes live rooms possible and keeps the game closed during the beta.
