Cycling Apps

Been using Strava to record my routes..etc.... any other recommendations for iPhone apps

Strava is excellent, a real Swiss Army knife of an app. If you're a paid-up subscriber you can call up any of the routes you've saved in your account to follow the track on a map while you're cycling.

For people who aren't subscribers and therefore can't save routes in Strava, a good one for following tracks while you're pedalling is GPX Viewer. Pretty simple app - you create a GPX track (lots of utilities on the web to do this) and upload it to the phone. I use Gmail for this usually. Then open the GPX file with the app, mount the phone on the handlebars and off you go!

I believe it uses Google Maps so if you have the area in question downloaded as an offline map, you won't need an Internet connection while you're cycling. Most areas do have decent mobile broadband coverage these days, though.

I assume there's an iPhone version as well.

I love strava, tried a couple of others but Strava always delivers

On the training side, Zwift is great

On the general information side and interest stuff, get the GCN (Global Cycling Network) app, loads of info and videos and stuff

This is a great app for planning routes on a phone or tablet. Normally I'd use a desktop, but it's something to fiddle with when you're keeping the missus company in the living room.

There is a pro version, but the free version is plenty for me.
