Safe & Fun for Young Riders — Introducing MyWhoosh Juniors

Pacer Bot for Runners (MyBunch)
Running solo can feel isolating, so we’ve added lifelike bot runners to keep you company. Choose a pace or effort zone and join a pack of 3–6 runners that move together, adapting to terrain and showing natural stride changes and fatigue. Always available, these bots make every run feel social, structured, and motivating no matter the time of day.
Explore the UCI 2025 World
We’re proud to introduce the UCI 2025 World, built exclusively for the 2025 UCI Cycling Esports World Championship. Featuring three unique, high-performance routes, this world will only be available during select events — not for free ride currently. Keep an eye on the event listings and our socials for your chance to preview it ahead of the Semi Finals.
