⛰️
Real terrain
The world is sculpted from your route's actual geography by the Ride Cave Map Service: real mountains, real valleys, real grades. Any road on Earth becomes a place you can ride.
The Infinite World
A living 3D world built from your route's real terrain. The sun arcs into night, weather rolls through, the land shifts from coastline to high alpine as you climb, and the riders on your route are really there, live.
The World
Built from the real Earth, alive around you
🌗
Day rolls into night
A full day cycle plays out as you ride: sunrise, high sun, golden hour, dusk, and starlit night, with the moon carrying the light after dark.
🌦️
Living weather
Clear skies, building cloud, and rain that moves through the valley while you ride. Every session looks a little different.
🏜️
Shifting biomes
The land changes as the route does: coastal roads, desert flats, forests, and high alpine passes, each with its own light and vegetation.
🌉
Roads that make sense
Bridges carry the road over water and over its own crossings, complete with decks, parapets, and piers, so a looping route reads like real infrastructure.
🚴
Your rider, riding
A fully animated rider pedals in time with your cadence and leans through the terrain, with Ride Along companions on the road when you bring them.
Live Multiplayer
The road is shared now
Flip one switch and the riders on your eRoute appear in the world with you, riding their own trainers in real time.
👥
Real riders, live
Everyone on the route shows up at their true position and speed. Nameplates mark riders near you; edge pills track the nearest riders ahead and behind with live distance and time gaps.
💨
Drafting that counts
Sit on a wheel and shelter cuts your effective aero drag, deeper still inside a paceline. A draft bar shows the live percentage and the watts you are saving. Your trainer resistance is never touched.
🚴
Pelotons with manners
Matched riders form up into real formations. Everyone keeps right, passes go by on the left, and from dusk onward every rider carries a little red taillight.
🔔
Say hello out there
Waves, quick messages, and short chat float above riders in the world, and you can tap a rider to ring a cowbell just for them. Comms are optional: turn them off and nothing renders.
🛡️
Safe for younger riders
Real-time riding requires a birthdate, checked on our servers. Riders under 18 never see free-text chat and cannot send it; they ride with curated presets, waves, and cowbells only.
🔒
Private by default
Real-time riding is off until you turn it on, and off means invisible. On, you appear under an anonymous rider name unless you and the other rider follow each other.
🗺️
Also in 2D
Not riding the 3D world? Live riders appear as colored dots on the classic player's route map and elevation profile, with the same edge pills.
Ways In
Any route becomes a world
🗺️
Ride an eRoute
Upload a GPX, TCX, or FIT file, or pick from the eRoutes library on the world map. The Infinite World builds itself from the route's real terrain, and your trainer follows every grade.
✏️
Or draw your own
Tap the pencil on the eRoutes map, drop a few points anywhere on Earth, and Ride Anywhere generates a rideable route on real roads with real elevation. Then ride it in the world.
Step into the world
The Infinite World is free on our official routes, and on every route with Cave Crew. Real-time riding comes with it.
