Discover the most beautiful mountain passes, from the great classics to the secret roads you keep to yourself. Every climb adds to your col•lection, one pass at a time, and makes you want to ride farther and higher. Connect your Strava or Garmin account: ColQuest loads your rides and builds your col•lection automatically. After each climb, the passes you've crossed are detected from your activity, with nothing to enter manually. Your score reflects the difficulty of every ascent, with bonuses that reward discovering new passes and any other whimsy along the way. Passes are grouped into quests, true guiding threads for exploring a massif, a region or a whole country. Complete them to earn extra points, climb the leaderboard and turn every ride into a new adventure. Which col will be your next?

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.
