New features for the rides

Locate your position

Under each route map, you can geo-locate yourself to know your current position in relation to the route. Moreover, once located, another button appears to follow your position in real time with your orientation!
You can then follow your location live and check if you are following the planned path.


Weather forecast

A new button appears in the route sheet: display the weather forecast.
With the help of open-meteo, you can check the weather forecast for the next 7 days. And above all, know the temperature and precipitation to avoid surprises.

Comments

For all public routes, other users will be able to add comments on your route. This will allow you to give details about the difficulty, the changes of indication, ...


Break time

You can now indicate a pause time when adding a route or a performance. This time will be deducted from the total time for the calculation of your performances.
This makes it easier to indicate the total time and the break will be automatically deducted.

A specific page to search for routes and trips has been added.
You can now select different criteria:
