I'm starting to delve into the indoor cycling simulations.
In my garage I've set up a 50" TV, Road bike on a trainer and have a cadance/wheel speed sensor ordered.
Zwift seems popular but cost. Vingo I have download and the graphics look decent.
What else is there? Pelaton is not GRM friendly
MTB rides would be awesome

I'm an avid Zwift fan in the winter. I use a smart trainer and generally do group rides or races unless I'm intentionally taking it easy.
That said, I've tried RGT last winter and liked it. The graphics were better, but not nearly as many people on the platform.

So many people on Zwift. So many group rides and races...
I just pay the money and enjoy it.

I use zwift too. Only pay for it in the coldest months. It's good at keeping me motivated when I don't feel like riding.
Ideally I'd just harden up and ride outside in the cold. Every time I do it I enjoy it, but getting kitted up and out the door in the first place is tough.
Cadesport looks interesting, most of the software out there is just a prettier version of the little LCD animation you'd see on an stationary bike's digital dash - in terms of steering, with most you're lucky if you can change lanes to pass other bikes. The best I've tried personally might be GTA: San Andreas. You could actually hop on a bike and do basically all the things you could do on a real bike (plus, uh, drive-bys), even if with rather arcadey physics. Maybe some day if I see one of these recent stationary bikes with tilt & steer capability and generic controls for cheap in a thrift store I'll pick one up.
