What's New in Open Road Ace

2.3.13

October 16, 2026

Rabbit fix for BBORR and NORC: the rabbit now crosses the finish line right on your target time. It used to pace to the end of the course map, which runs a little past the surveyed finish line, so riding it put you about half a second early. Your scored result was always correct. Two GPS units: the unit with the best signal now times the finish, and the live delta is smoother when both are connected.

Does not work at all!

Very frustrating when I have to pay $30 up front just to install the app to test it, to see it does not work at all. After going through the set up parameters, it just hangs up then shuts down. Now when I open the app again the logo displays on a blank screen then the app shuts down. complete waste of money.
