1. WORLD: Consistent Scenery

   Not so much a new idea but an evolution of existing. The 'cruiseliners' seem wrong to me even unrealistic and they block the view. They are too close to the shore ... unless they've actually run aground. How do the passengers get ashore? either a wharf or maybe some shore landing feature with smaller boats tied up ... and anyway is there really enough for them to do and see when they're here?
   Perhaps some more modest expedition cruisers might fit better.

   Georgetown and the other 'villages' seem abandoned and do not have a cohesive style, these need to be refined. We have some mammoth medieval castle, viking villages and perhaps southern USA township all on a pretty small group of islands. evolve the viking shacks to simple groupings of fishing shacks and with some being abandoned but all in the Georgetown style perhaps? There must be a functioning town somewhere otherwise you wouldn't have the windfarm ..... this town could be located to include the wharf for the tourists boats and fishing fleet and freight. But fundamentally build the story of historical occupation to current use and the architecture will follow. The 'story' is not there yet.

2. EVENTS: Add staggered start capability for Team Time Trial and Chase Race style events

   As the TPV TTT League participation grows we have more suggested feature enhancements that will increase appeal with the added benefit that they are closely akin to another popular event type: Chase Racing making for potentially broader, high impact enhancements for the community.

   The most requested enhancements for TTT are:
   - Visibility of other teams as we race in a TTT (ghost form or normally appearing avatars)
   - Preferably no draft between teams as one passes another but optional inclusion of inter-team drafting
   - Staggered start times between teams based on team ARR or perhaps organizer chosen gap times
   - TT style bikes, kit, and rider position (visual only no physics)
   - More route options or route start position freedom
   - Advanced bot AI behavior for TTT including rotating pulls
   - Spectator view across all teams in a TTT
   - Continuous live gap reporting rather than only at checkpoints

   Many of those enhancements would enable a popular new event type for TPV: Chase Racing

   • ARR used to form groups based on human (or human+bot) participant ability
   • Start times staggered by predicted ARR that would lead to all groups predicted to finish together
   • Visibility between groups as ghost avatars or normal avatars
   • Assigned chase group number jersey option
   • Drafting between groups allowed or disallowed by organizer choice

3. MECHANICS: Adaptive Cruise Control

   The new Cruise Control feature is fantastic, it locks in a target power beautifully. But… it flattens the virtual terrain completely, and that takes away a big part of the immersive feel.

   Suggestion: Add a “Virtual Cruise Control” mode where the set power applies to 0% gradient, and you choose a bias (0–10) to scale power with incline.

   For example:

   Set power = 200 W, incline = 2%, bias = 2
   Resulting power = 200 W + (200 × 0.02 × 2) = 208 W

   This way, you keep the benefits of steady pacing and get the natural resistance changes of hills. It’s the best of both worlds — realistic terrain feel with stable power control.

   ✅ Why it matters:
   • Keeps climbs engaging and realistic
   • Makes group rides and racing feel more natural
   • Gives athletes the choice to tune realism vs. control

5. FITFILES: Stop Virtual from auto-saving to TP account.

   After a ride Virtual asks me if I want to discard the ride (I assume to stop it syncing to my TP account) but it ignores me and auto-saves to TP anyway. Then when a sync my watch to Garmin Connect (which is linked to TP) I have two workouts in my account for the one ride. It's easy enough to delete one but my TP account is also linked to WKO as well. The discard my ride button is ignoring me.

6. MECHANICS: Join GPX files together

   For quite some time now, I have been toying with the idea of virtually cycling all three climbs of Mont Ventoux in one day.
   In principle, completing the route that is necessary in the real world to be accepted into the club Les Cinglés du Mont-Ventoux.
   This iconic moutain is very popular without a question, i dare to say.
   Climbs of the mountain have be integrated in étapes of the Tour de France more than 15 times.
   To date, there are almost 20000 members of the club Les Cinglés du Mont-Ventoux, all having accomplished the above challenge with a certificate.

   With GPXplore it now would be possible, to turning my idea into reality, so I had hoped.
   Organising an event of this nature at the weekend of the approaching Free4All might be quite attractive, I thought. Perfect timing.

   However
   Given the nature of the entire route, it doesn't look as good as it could, unfortunately. The overlapping road surfaces don't do the graphical capabilities TPV justice either. My hope was, riders descending could see riders climbing up too. Meaning, the imported track would result into combined roads, where the same road was used when creating the track. I'm a bit hesitant to make this event public as mentioned on Discord.

   This is the reason for writing this user voice idea:

   I'd love to see the Géant de Provence integrated into TPV.
   Ideally with it's main landmarks like the tower on the top, the Chalet Reynard, the Tom Simpson memorial. Woodland, matching the existing woodland in reality more or less.
   Integrating it to the main? world would further let one choose the start of climbing, and mitigate the problems mentioned above too.
   I myself had used the no longer existant BKool for preparing before becoming a club Les Cinglés member. Others might use TPV for it in future. Who knows.
   The area could be even be extended in future with e.g. by adding the Gorges de la Nesque.

   Even if this idea is thought for food for how to improve GPXplore in the end, it would be cool.

   P.S. It's not possible to add the GPX file here. It's been linked to in Discord

8. EXTERNAL: Apple Health integration

   Currently TP "reads" from apple health. Could you please add a "write" function? My current UX is I start my scheduled workout on TPV, then I start an indoor cycle session on my apple watch. (I want my workout data to be sent to apple fitness so my monthly kms and time gets added up, among other things). Anyway, these two sessions get sent to TP and I have to delete the apple one so two don't show up on TP.

   I think the simple fix is have TPV "write" to apple health.

9. UI/UX: Add realtime carb burn to HUD options

   TrainingPeaks has just added the ability to show calories burned split by carbs and fat.

   It would be great if it was possible to show carb burn (ideally in grams of carbs rather than calories, i.e. divided by 4) in realtime whilst riding. This will help fuel during an activity and replenish appropriately afterwards.

10. HUB: Apple TV Bluetooth connection limitation

    Are there plans to introduce a phone app that can act as a sensor bridge to get past the Apple TV limitation of only being able to pair two devices? Have an older smart trainer with no cadence sensor built-in so have to forego the HRM pairing.

    As a TP Virtual User I'd like a better way to adjust my workout percentage as I can't see the arrow up/down buttons and even when I can see them just using my finger to reduce the workout percentage It never registers accurately or causes other items to show up on screen.

13. UI/UX: Configurable HUD (+ presets)

    It should be possible to freeform configure the HUD - place datafields or elements wherever you want, change the font, change the size, remove the borders, etc.

    It should also be possible to save presets, so you can have a different configuration for racing, workouts, free rides etc.

15. EVENTS: Automatic Splits For TTs On Courses Without Arches

    Aimed mostly at courses on the new user uploaded routes, if using a route for a TT/TTT, there are no options to have live splits between the teams during the race. If when selecting TT/TTT on a course without arches there was an option to get splits every 2/5/10k automatically implemented, that would be ideal.

16. UI/UX: w/kg

    I understand that you don't want to show w/kg for the riders around you and I understand your reasoning. However, on my bike computer in real life I have my power data set to display as w/kg NOT a power number. It would be nice to have this as an option in the HUD display of my data that others can't see. I think others have also moved away from viewing a power number and instead use w/kg. Again it would be nice to have this as a power option in the displays that are private to the user.

    Future Opportunity  ·  AdminGeorge Gilbert (Admin, TrainingPeaks) responded

    Many thanks for this more nuanced suggestion, and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.

    We've deliberately not declined this one and will add it to the list of suggestions to consider in more detail. Whilst the general position remains that we deliberately choose not to publish this metric, it potentially could be displayed for yourself only (and be blank when viewing other riders) as an option in the custom UI.

17. MECHANICS: Increase Climbing Rating Importance for Races with Significant Climbs

    Summary:
    When calculating event ratings for races that include categorized climbs (Cat 4, Cat 3, Cat 2, Cat 1, or HC), the algorithm should place substantially more weight on a rider's climbing rating rather than relying heavily on TT and Endurance ratings. This would create more balanced competition in hilly/mountainous races.

    Problem:
    Currently, the event rating system appears to favor Time Trial and Endurance abilities in any longer race, even in races with significant climbing. This leads to several issues: Climbers with lower overall ratings but strong climbing abilities are placed in lower pens than appropriate. Larger/heavier riders with strong TT/Endurance ratings are placed in higher pens despite climbing limitations. Race predictions become inaccurate (predicting top-5 finishes for riders who realistically can't achieve this on climbs). Some riders avoid climbing-heavy races due to poor pen placement.

    Proposed Solution:
    While I understand some weighting already exists, I propose a more substantial emphasis on climbing rating. Significantly increase the importance of climbing rating whenever a race includes categorized climbs. Use the established climb categorization formula (distance × gradient²) to determine how much weight to give climbing ability:

    600+ points – hors catégorie

    300-600 points – 1st category

    150-300 points – 2nd category

    75-150 points – 3rd category

    Up to 75 points – 4th category

    I would advocate that races with a cat 3 or higher climb, climbing rating should be the primary or sole factor. Any race with a cat 4 climb it should still be the primary factor.

    Example: The first climb in the Marathon route: 9.9km long and gradient of 5.7%. (9.95.75.7)=321 or Category 1

    Benefits:
    More accurate race predictions and event ratings. Improved racing experience as riders compete against others with similar climbing abilities. More participation in climbing-focused events. Better bot selection for riders to train and race with.
    For races with multiple climbs, the cumulative impact should be considered when determining how heavily to weight climbing ability in the event rating.

    Summary:
    When calculating event ratings for races that include categorized climbs (Cat 4, Cat 3, Cat 2, Cat 1, or HC), the algorithm should place substantially more weight on a rider's climbing rating rather than relying heavily on TT and Endurance ratings. This would create more balanced competition in hilly/mountainous races.

18. WORLD: Avatar lean and drift around corners

    Cornering currently feels completely off on TPV. This is partly due to line choice (a lone rider follows the curve of the road and doesn't take a racing line) but visually it is also disengaging to watch as the avatar does not put an outside foot down, lean and fight centrifugal force in a bend.

    Biketerra have recently updated their avatar animations to do this, and it totally transforms the feeling of cornering. You can see their implementation here:
