One point isn't a ride

A weather app gives you one forecast for one spot. But a 90 km ride crosses valleys, ridges and coastlines over several hours โ€” and the wind that's a tailwind on the way out is a headwind on the way home. Ride Radar forecasts the conditions you'll actually meet, where and when you'll meet them.

Questions

What is Ride Radar?

A pre-ride weather tool for cyclists. It forecasts conditions along your whole route at the time you'll actually be at each point, then tells you the best window to set off.

How is it different from a normal weather app?

A weather app gives you one forecast for one place. Ride Radar walks your route point by point, matches each point to your ETA, and shows rain, temperature and head/tailwind where and when you'll meet them.

Does it show headwind and tailwind?

Yes. The wind is projected onto your direction of travel for each segment, so you can see where you'll fight a headwind and where you'll get a push.

Is Ride Radar free?

You can try the live demo for free on a sample loop. Running Ride Radar on your own routes is part of VeloPin Pro.

Where does the weather come from?

Forecasts come from Open-Meteo. Only your route's coordinates are sent to fetch the forecast.
