Riding Places

Free cycling app with offline maps, turn-by-turn navigation, route building, & GeoZone challenges. Track rides & CO2 savings. Auto syncs your rides from Strava.

Riding Places is your all-in-one cycling companion—whether you're commuting to work, exploring new trails, or chasing adventures far from home. Built for every type of rider, from first-time bike commuters to seasoned gravel enthusiasts, the app combines powerful navigation tools with a unique rewards system that turns ordinary rides into meaningful journeys. Create routes, record rides, navigate offline, and connect with communities that matter to you—all completely free.

What sets Riding Places apart is GeoZones, our patent-pending location-based challenge system. As you ride, you'll automatically discover, then join and complete GeoZones placed by local businesses, employers, cycling clubs, and event organizers. No manual check-ins, no stopping to scan codes—just ride through and earn points. Track your CO2 savings when you commute by bike, compete on live leaderboards, and see how your rides contribute to a healthier planet. Already use Strava? Connect once and we'll import your rides automatically.
