TrainingPeaks Virtual Update Version v0.4.16 Released March 10, 2025

The latest TrainingPeaks Virtual update, v0.4.16, released March 10th, brings more graphical variation and quality enhancements.

Editor’s note: Since early June 2023, we’ve highlighted the rapid evolution of indieVelo with weekly update posts. Not everyone receives the emails or is a member of the various social media groups, and the more searchable mentions available, the better to promote the indieVelo, err, Training Peaks Virtual vision. The name is different, and the once-a-week cadence might change, but the commitment to promoting the platform hasn’t wavered.

TrainingPeaks Virtual is continuing to deliver the features you’ve requested. This week’s release significantly improves the in-world graphics, helping to give a more immersive experience as you ride.

Headlining is the introduction of fully customizable branded roadside barriers and flags. As well as making your custom events feel more lifelike, these enable coaches and event organizers to better promote their businesses, showcasing the value each brings to athletes. A rotating selection of these will also be shown on the main island to those free-riding to ensure that coaches and event organizers on TrainingPeaks Virtual have an ongoing presence in the virtual world for everyone.

Other significant changes include the use of other graphical effects such as atmospheric haze, motion blur and updated road surfaces to make riding and spectating more engaging. Major improvements to the internal infrastructure also mean that we’ve been able to increase the number of low memory devices capable of recording local copies of your FIT files (as well as the server copies as usual), and significantly improve the quality of graphics shown to everyone.

Alongside this are a large number of updates to the TrainingPeaks Hub mobile app to improve the UI. A huge thank you to all the members of the Founders Club who have given their feedback so far. As usual, we expect to be able to act on this quickly and then are aiming to roll out the app to everyone within the next couple of weeks.

Rounding off the already jam packed release, are a huge number of updates to the underlying infrastructure. These additions, improvements and fixes continue to make pairing your Bluetooth devices easier, faster and more reliable, as well as keeping everything else running smoothly.

As always please share your thoughts and suggestions of what you would like to see in future releases on the dedicated UserVoice channel, as well as vote and discuss the ideas from others.  Thank you all again for your continued support!
