What's new
Product updates for riders and Groups, newest first.
- Everyone
A homepage for riders and Groups
The homepage now speaks to Groups as well as riders, a new page compares Riding Places with commute measurement platforms, and the employer page shows how it works alongside the schemes you already run.
- Groups
Pricing in the menu, and answers for Groups
Pricing is now in the menu, the Group pages answer common questions about getting people riding, the cost and the free trial, and a new page compares Riding Places with running it on a spreadsheet.
- Riders
Choose what happens to your Strava rides
When you disconnect Strava, you now choose: remove the rides that came from Strava, or keep them along with everything they earned. Removal waits 7 days, and reconnecting in that time keeps everything.
- Riders
Your name carries over from Sign in with Apple
New accounts made with Sign in with Apple now keep the name Apple shares with us, instead of starting blank.
- Groups
Group setup walks you through each step
New Groups are guided through the setup steps in Settings one at a time, and the highlight moves on as each step is saved.
- Groups
Location Ramble numbers count only qualifying rides
On a location Ramble's Data page, rides, distance, CO2 and points now come only from the rides that qualified for that Ramble.
- Riders
Leaving a Group keeps what you earned
If you leave a Group, everything you earned with it stays. Rides while you're away don't count for it, and if you rejoin you confirm its Rambles again.
- Riders
See that you're taking part
Once you confirm a Ramble, its page and card now say you're taking part and your rides count.
- Riders
Join during a ride, and the ride counts
Join a Group and confirm its Ramble at any point during a ride, and that whole ride counts.

- Riders
Suggested Groups and Rambles
The app and website now suggest Groups and Rambles picked by our team.
- Riders
One ride, counted once
If the app and Strava both record the same ride, we now keep both copies and count the ride once. You choose which source wins in Settings.
