Getting bored on the trainer try GTA V
Virtually riding in the mountains may be harder than the real thing LOL
- The first part of the Riviera video is a short tour of the "island"
______
Both are modifications to the game GTAV and the bike is controller with a trainer as in Zwift. Some of the textures are a bit buggy but the trainer effect is real.
A word of warning though. You CAN ride in the GTA world as well but getting run over, shot of mugged are a real possibility.

didn't seem like anyone was paying attention to this in General Cycling so I moved it here
When gta was free for a month, I thought about doing this, but by the time I got around to it, the free period was over.

Two years ago Epic was giving it away for 100% free. It often goes on sale for ~$10 and the mods are free as well. Back then GTBike V was rough but now it is much better and includes multiplayer and courses.

I was wondering how you avoided the violence. The scenery looks better than zwift.

The violence is easily removed with "family friendly roaming" mod

Graphics are a nice change from Zwift for sure.
