## What is BikeWind for Cyclists?

BikeWind is a cycling app that helps you evaluate route conditions before and during a ride.

You can check wind and weather impact on saved routes, compare the ride from the start and in reverse, and select a date and time to preview conditions.

BikeWind supports route import from GPX and FIT files as well as Strava. Every route is stored locally, so you can return later, review ride history, and analyze conditions for specific sessions.

Key features:
- wind and weather analysis for saved routes
- compare riding direction from the start or from the end
- route details with stats, map, elevation, and gradient profiles
- import routes from GPX, FIT, and Strava
- Live Speed with current wind impact while riding
- Cycling route generator
- Simple navigation

BikeWind helps answer practical questions:
- should you leave now or later
- will this route be more headwind or tailwind today
- which direction will work better
- what conditions can you expect during the ride

The app does not require an account. Strava integration is optional, and your saved routes and ride history stay stored locally on your device.

BikeWind is made for riders who want a clearer way to judge conditions and plan rides with less guesswork.
