Feel free to send us feedback or ask any questions :-)
@quadres as a huge fan of digital maps and how they can benefit us in our offline lives, I think this product is fantastic. I might have missed it but can you form meet ups with other riders in your area? I think the social aspect would provide a certain stickiness that would make this a staple app for bike riders across the world. Killer product.
@doyoulikesports Hi Hunter, thanks a lot for your feedback - great idea - we discussed the meetups also. As a first step into that we now start an ambassador program with our power users and local heroes - this will be the first step into this. Please drop me a line if you want to be part of it, looking forward...
Bikemap allows you to discover 🗻 cycle routes from fellow 🚴 cyclists from all over the world. This means you can also add your own favorite routes to share them with others. Personally impressive to me was seeing the volume of routes they already have in the database (2.8+ million).
Also quite useful are the city maps as each city has their own degree of 'friendliness' and it's always good to know how to get around when you want to explore and 📷 see things but still be on your bike.
@fdorfbauer Thanks, that's great to hear! :-) As Google Maps is rather built for general (car) use, we've implemented our own map based on OpenStreetMap to 1. stay up to date in terms of cartographical material and 2. provide more relevant information specifically for cyclists, like watermarks, better hill shading, etc.
