RIDE BEYOND
Read full descriptionHide full description
Ride Beyond plans motorcycle routes the way you want to ride them: fastest, twistiest, or off-road. Turn-by-turn navigation with voice, offline routes, ride recording, Garmin import and a rider rating built from physics, not likes. Routing covers mainland Europe, Morocco, Australia and New Zealand. FOUR WAYS TO RIDE - Car: plain sat-nav routing, on roads a car would take. - Moto: twisty, hilly, paved backroads. A slider from Efficient to Scenic trades time for fun, and it never sends you onto gravel. - Adventure: gravel, forest tracks and paths, from fast rally gravel to technical enduro. Dry or wet ground changes what it picks. - Fastest: whatever gets you there soonest, tarmac or track. PLAN AND NAVIGATE - Search a place or long-press the map, add stops, pick a mode per leg, with motorway and singletrack switches. - Adventure Direct finds the most dirt that fits your time; Explore wanders further. Set time to spare, dirt or views, and a difficulty cap. - Fuel planner: your bike's range, fuel stops by price and detour, and a warning where no station is in reach. - See the surface split before you commit: how much asphalt, gravel, path and unknown. - Turn-by-turn navigation with voice guidance, live speed, posted speed limit, and alerts for fixed speed cameras (camera data covers Romania today). - Navigation and recording carry on with the screen off, and show in the Dynamic Island and on the Lock Screen. - A 3D map with terrain and buildings, and your own bike on it, leaning with the phone. A Dark map for night riding. Miles or kilometres, on screen and in the voice. - Look around freely while navigating, open any layer, and tap the map to add a stop. - Download a route with its map corridor and navigate it in airplane mode. - Import a GPX track and follow it, or snap it to roads. - For You: say how long you have and get loops that fit, road or off-road. RECORD AND UNDERSTAND YOUR RIDES - One tap records a ride with the phone on the bar or in a pocket. Works offline, syncs later, and survives a crash or a restart. - Connect Garmin and your rides flow in on their own. - Every ride analysed: speed, elevation, heart rate, lean angle, cornering and surface mix. - A rider rating anchored to grip physics and your tyres, counting each ride once wherever it came from. Car trips never count. - Leaderboards, challenges, badges and a garage for every bike you own, in the look and colour you pick. - Export any ride as GPX, TCX or FIT, or as a share card image. RALLY ROADBOOKS - Drive a recon and the roadbook builds itself on the phone, offline: tulips, distances, CAP headings, dangers. - Edit every entry, export as OpenRally GPX, GPX, PDF or JSON, or ride it with a trip odometer and live CAP. RIDE WITH FRIENDS - A friends-only feed: share a ride with photos and a caption, like and save rides into your own library. - See where friends are riding right now. - Group rides: one route and one GO for everyone. Open rides that riders nearby can join. - Add friends by @username or QR code, or invite a rider with your own link. - Privacy zones hide the places you choose, and can hide where your rides start and end. - Report a post or block a rider at any time. MAP AND CONDITIONS - A satellite map: 1.5 m photos across Romania and a photo at low zoom everywhere the app routes. Hold to see the bare photo. - Signal zones: No signal, No internet and Full signal, on the map and in the route plan. - Rain radar at every zoom, and ground wetness: how muddy the trails are, refreshed through the day. WHAT YOU NEED - An account (email or Apple). - Location while the app is open. During a ride you started (a recording or navigation) it carries on in the background until the ride ends, with the iOS location indicator showing. No background tracking outside a ride. Ride Beyond is built by a rider, for riders, and it has no ads and your data is never sold. Terms of Use: https://ridebeyond.app/terms Privacy Policy: https://ridebeyond.app/privacy
