Pédalons is the home of your cycling club or group: rides, routes, the agenda and team news, all in one place. RIDES • Every ride offers its pace groups: sign up for yours in one tap, and see who is riding with whom. • Start location and time, planned route, comments: everything you need to know before heading out. • The ride's weather in the week before it: at the start, then along the route at your group's pace — rain, temperature, and headwind or tailwind, point by point, right on the map. • Multi-day trips, stage by stage, with the weather for each stage. ROUTES • The club's route library, on the map or as a list, filtered by distance and elevation; Explore opens the map of every route of your teams. • An elevation profile coloured by gradient or by surface, and the climbs along the way. • The route's points on the map and the profile: regroups, food stops, water, cafés, summits, hazards… • Download as GPX or FIT, and send a route to your Hammerhead Karoo or Garmin bike computer — or have routes sent automatically, service by service. THE TEAM • Each team's dashboard: your next rides, the latest posts, new routes and ads. • The agenda of rides and trips, as a list or a calendar, which you can subscribe to from your own calendar app. • Club posts, to keep everyone in the loop. • Classified ads between members, without your e-mail address ever being shown. • Notifications for ride reminders, schedule changes and replies to your comments, set type by type. A Pédalons account is created with an e-mail address; sign-in works with a password, a one-time code or passkeys.
