Keep together
One group, whatever the watts.
A 150 W rider and a 300 W rider used to split up within minutes of the start. Turn on Keep together when you host a Group Ride and the whole group stays in one bunch to the finish, while every rider still saves the distance and speed their own legs earned.
Free for every rider and runner. On Group Rides and Group Runs.
How it works
Switch it on, then just ride.
Turn it on
Host a Group Ride or Group Run on an eRoute and switch on Keep together in the Options. Attach a workout and it switches on by default. Group Races never use it.
Set the window
Choose how far riders can roam before Keep together steps in, from 5 m for a tight bunch to 50 m for a loose group. It starts at 15 m.
Roll out together
Everyone starts on the GO as usual. Fall back and you are brought up to the group; get ahead and you are held with it.
On the road
Your effort, the group’s road.
Free inside the bunch.
Within the window you ride on your own power, so drafting, attacks and sprints all work as they always do. Drift outside it and Keep together eases your place on the road back toward the group, with a small pill that says what is happening in one word:
- Regrouping while you are pulled up to the group.
- Tethered while you are held at its front.
- Dropped once you stop pedalling for 10 seconds, or 30 with a workout attached. Pedal again and you are brought back.
Group Runs too.
Host a Group Run with Keep together and runners at different paces stay in one pack. Surges and sprints still work inside the window, and a runner who falls back is brought back to the group.
Honest numbers
Ride together. Save your own ride.
Keep together moves you along the road, never your numbers. What you save is what your own effort did.
Your own distance and speed
Your saved distance, speed and climbing come from your own power or pace on the road you actually rode. A hard climb still counts as a hard climb.
No borrowed GPS track
A ride or run that Keep together moved saves without a GPS track, so your uploads never carry the group’s pace as yours.
Off the leaderboard
Your time on a Keep together ride is the group’s, so it stays off the eRoute’s leaderboard.
Rode together, no places
Results show the group riding in together, with no places. Your summary says the ride was kept together.
One interval for everyone
With a workout attached, everyone rides each interval at their own targets and nobody skips ahead, so the group stays on the same step.
Your trainer stays yours
Keep together never touches your watts or your resistance. In SIM mode you feel the grade where you are with the group, and ERG targets do not change.
