Have you ever dreamed of experiencing the magic of the Giro d’Italia from the inside? The BKOOL training platform and RCS Sport, the official organiser of the Giro d’Italia, have teamed up once again to bring the Corsa Rosa closer to the fans.
A new edition of the Giro d’Italia Virtual hosted by BKOOL, an indoor training experience that transports participants to the real stages of the Giro 2023 without having to leave home, starts on 18 October.
All you need to take part in this virtual experience is to own a Smart Bike or a Smart Wheel and create a user account at BKOOL.
BKOOL offers a free 30-day trial on its website for all new registrations, and participating in the Virtual Giro d’Italia is at no extra cost compared to subscribing to the platform.
The BKOOL app is available for computers, tablets and mobile phones and can be downloaded directly from the website or from your app store.
To create the most realistic and immersive experience possible, BKOOL has implemented an innovative simulation technology that combines high-definition videos shot during the real stages of the last edition of the Giro with 3D elements.
The result allows the user to discover in detail the most emblematic sections of the race as if they were there, sharing their experience with thousands of cyclists from all over the world.
Not only will all the fans taking part in the event be able to recreate the routes of the Giro stages, but they will also have the opportunity to do so with special guests such as Chris Froome, Alberto Contador, Óscar Freire, Remco Evenepoel or the other stars of the Soudal-Quick-Step team.
The Giro d’Italia Virtual, hosted by BKOOL, will be an exclusive link between stars and fans, allowing any cyclist to meet their idols, train with them and even interact with them in the Instagram LIVE that will accompany each group ride.
RCS Sport has confirmed the participation of sponsors such as Enel, Maglia Rosa and Title Sponsor of the Giro Italia Virtual, Namedsport, Nutrition Partner of Giro d’Italia and Giro d’Italia Virtual, Technogym, Training Partner of Giro d’Italia and Giro d’Italia Virtual, Astoria Wines, Official Wine of Giro d’Italia and Giro d’Italia Virtual, Castelli, that designs the Giro d’Italia and Giro d’Italia Virtual Maglia Rosa. Together with RCS and BKOOL itself, these sponsors will provide a long list of rewards to be raffled among all participants. The only requirement to take part in the final prize draw is to complete all the stages of the event, so all cycling enthusiasts, whatever their level, will be able to win some great prizes.
