Training Peaks Virtual: control using real gears?

Anybody using Training Peaks Virtual?

I think its at least as good as Zwift, and it’s free for those of us that have a premium account.

However, I like to ride it as dumb trainer under my control with the actual gears, as I only use it in the winter to do intervals in weekdays. But I can’t find how to do that. Anybody can hint me on how to configure it?

When riding in the virtual world, you can toggle between Erg, terrain, and fixed. This can be done using the “E” key on your keyboard. In your case, you would want to use “terrain” or “fixed”. Terrain matches the hills in the virtual world, and “fixed” mimics a flat road where you need to shift gears to ride harder or easier.
