### 4/5 — Really useful and shows great promise!

*2024-02-14, version 1.5.0*

I have found LMR to be a great asset to find and join rides when I was on holiday in Spain recently….didn’t need to be on any special/secret email lists or other online groups….didn’t need to follow just the right people or clubs in Strava either. It’s a nice concept and works well for me, but it’s still mostly unknown in the US. 

I don’t know why that other reviewer is getting notifications from clubs so far away…that is not happening for me.

### 2/5 — Useful kernel marred by spam

*2023-05-26, version 1.3.0*

My club chose this service for organizing group rides. 

The premise is great: I can get a push notification if a group ride is canceled (well, the old system, where I got an email if a ride was canceled, worked well too but let’s set that aside). 

However I also get push notifications for random rides 3,000 miles away across the Atlantic Ocean. Utter crap.

### 5/5 — Hands down the best cycling app to meet new friends!

*2023-02-22, version 1.1.6*

What a fantastic app! I went to Girona a month ago for a week and hardly knew anyone so I created a gentle pre-work ride on Link My Ride. Despite it being a super early one, two people joined the ride and we’ve now remained friends and I look forward to riding with them on my return :) really cool features within the app that you don’t get anywhere else… so looking forward to seeing it take off! If you haven’t already, go and download it now. 🚀

### 5/5 — What an idea

*2023-02-21, version 1.1.6*

Great! Love it - I found a group ride when I went to girona. 

Recommend!!

### 5/5 — Social cycling !

*2023-02-21, version 1.1.6*

Great concept—a community focused app for cyclists developed by cyclists. No more lonely winter rides! Great work.

### 5/5 — Great idea, just needs more uptake

*2022-12-27, version 1.1.6*

The app seems to work well, unfortunately I have only ever seen a couple of rides in South London/Surrey Hills posted which are too far away for me. Have posted a couple myself. I’ve seen a couple of members local to me added recently so hopefully when the weather picks up there will be more activity on the app.

### 1/5 — Can’t even register

*2022-11-11, version 1.1.3*

177 Magiclink emails, none of which work so I can’t even access the app!

Deleted!

### 1/5 — Glitchy set up

*2022-10-11, version 1.1.3*

Was sent 105 links to verify my account (only requested this once!) whilst been told I had tried too many times?! Eventually it allowed me to continue and I then tried check the box to ensure no one could see my exact location but was not assured this was the case so deleted the app. Which is a shame. Concept is great but don’t feel secure and not encouraged by the major glitch. Can I request my data is deleted now?

### 1/5 — Love the idea

*2022-10-03, version 1.1.0*

Love the idea just can’t execute anything in the app

Only see three rides in profile and can’t scroll to see anything else

Can’t even write to app support  is the website as won’t except what I’ve written

### 4/5 — Weekly Group Rides

*2022-09-22, version 1.1.0*

It looks interesting. I tried to add a weekly ride with the same meeting point each Sunday, but no fixed route. There seems to be no way of doing this.

### 1/5 — Failed app

*2026-07-14, version 1.6.6*

Don’t bother to download. This app no longer works for new sign ups.

### 1/5 — GPX ISSUE - upload

*2025-12-22, version 1.6.6*

I would like to bring to your attention an issue I am experiencing when uploading GPX files. The problem is that the app doesn't consider GPX files compatible when creating a new ride even if they were sourced from Link My Ride. 

While I appreciate the Link My Ride platform, these ongoing issues are impacting my experience and are leading me to consider alternative solutions.

I would appreciate your support in addressing this matter.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t pay employees. 1 star

*2025-12-06, version 1.6.6*

Title

### 1/5 — Doom Loop on account created

*2025-09-16, version 1.6.6*

Account created, but keeps looping to check your Inbox. Click on that “Where does your investment take us” mail and it only wants you to invest on Crowdcube. Several days trying with same result so it’s a pointless app that achieves nothing except a doom loop. Sorry, Tom Pidcock, but this is a fail out of the gate.

### 1/5 — Can’t sign up

*2025-05-12, version 1.6.6*

No sign up email received

### 1/5 — Email account verification is never received

*2025-03-31, version 1.6.4*

I’ve tried to access the app umpteen times over the last few months but for whatever reason I never receive the verification link for me email (and yes, I do check my junk ;-)) Sad, because it sounds like it would be great if I could get on!

### 1/5 — Scam! Don’t use!

*2024-12-08, version 1.6.4*

I was scammed $36 from using their club feature

### 1/5 — Useless

*2024-07-09, version 1.5.5*

This is so awkward and hard to use
Have to do exact cycle previously to map and can’t edit route

### 1/5 — Privacy issues

*2023-12-30, version 1.5.0*

Defaults to sharing your EXACT pinpoint location on a map without warning you it’s going to do that. Doesn’t let you preview how useful it may be for your area without creating an account and sharing your location. Eg. There were zero rides and a total of six riders in my area so I’d have skipped even signing up.

### 1/5 — Crashes. Shows sponsored ahead of clubs you follow

*2023-05-10, version 1.2.9*

Shows what looks to be sponsored club rides from all over the world instead(in front) of the clubs I actually follow with no way of disabling it. I’m not interested in looking rides going on in other countries. 
Needs better tools for clubs for dealing with users set to private as ride creators cannot see those users. 
Being able to link routes from strava or RWGPS would be useful instead of the gpx file for those only using mobile devices.

### 5/5 — So easy to use

*2025-07-03, version 1.6.6*

Really easy to use..  best feature is to download / transfer routes to head unit within a few clicks no need for PC , love scrolling down to see what social rides I can jump on to. Just registered on Instagram ride and a Tech ride with a burger at the end 😉👌

### 5/5 — Get that app !

*2024-10-18, version 1.6.4*

Great app to meet new people and explore new places! Bike is connecting people!

### 5/5 — Linking riders with passion

*2024-10-08, version 1.6.4*

A great app to get people, groups and communities together with a linked interest and passion in our wonderful sport! A great platform to spread events and rides to a variety of individuals

### 5/5 — Does everything

*2024-07-29, version 1.5.5*

This the app which every cyclist needs, it’s really amazing app to connect and communicate all cyclists together, sharing the routes and start point for any ride + the waiver option for clubs where they can share the instructions and guidance to the members.

### 5/5 — The best app for organizing group rides, or finding and joining them.

*2024-01-26, version 1.5.0*

I’ll say it again ;-) The best app for organizing group rides, or finding and joining them.

### 5/5 — Very cool idea

*2023-08-04, version 1.4.1*

I’m in Glasgow for the worlds with my bike, don’t know anyone to ride with and there are plenty of rides to join! 

I also created one myself and invite a few locals who turned up! Made some nee friends!!! So cool

Highly recommend

### 5/5 — So easy to use

*2023-07-31, version 1.4.0*

Really easy to use..  not many people in south of france on app but as soon as more people on will be brilliant

### 5/5 — Amazing - just great!

*2023-07-22, version 1.3.0*

New cyclist and didn’t know anyone, this app shows people nearby and a created a ride invited locals and now I know a great group!

Thanks link my ride!

### 5/5 — Game changer

*2023-02-27, version 1.1.6*

Product that’s been thought through and executed in a way that’s easy to use, but as well easy to get benefits from. Everything in the app makes my training easier but also more fun and social able

### 5/5 — Brilliant app, great for club rides

*2023-02-27, version 1.1.6*

Use this each week for the club ride, works a treat!
