Running from April 1-5, ROUVY has launched an open-to-all Easter virtual race series. The Virtual ‘Real Spring Classics’ series – sponsored by Elite, Santini and PEDALITALY – will pedal through virtual locations in Germany, Italy, Spain, Australia and Taiwan.
The series of five day-to-day races across the Easter weekend will test riders’ sprinting and tactical skills, on both short and long virtual cycling routes.
An overall general classification ranking is included in a new format of a multi-lap crit race, right at the very first event hosted in the German virtual location.
“The Virtual ‘Real Spring Classics on ROUVY is the right mix of fun and competition,” said Mattia Gomerio, Marketing Manager at Elite Cycling. “I’m sure the participants will fully enjoy these series that require a good load of commitment.”

Each day is an individual, stand-alone single race with individual and overall general classifications. Bike selection and drafting are available within the ROUVY platform.
Bad Homburg, the first race on April 1st, is a crit race. The ranking in the series (overall general classification) is based on the three best results in the races. Prize winners will be selected via random draws. Any rider who finishes at least one race is eligible for the draws. The prizes are presented by ELITE Cycling and Santini.
Athletes wishing to participate in the ‘Real Spring Classics’ series #2 must have a smart trainer, bike, and a device capable of using ROUVY, such as a phone, tablet, computer or AppleTV, connected to the Internet. A valid ROUVY account is also required; and new riders are offered an additional 14-day free trial to help them be part of the action.
