In todays video I walk through my process for how to plan Cycling Routes and Bike Rides using Komoot. This video is part of my Cycling Essentials series where I discuss topics for those just getting into cycling. But even if you're more experienced, hopefully you'll still learn a thing or two!

Thank you for such an informative tutorial on Komoot. I'm not sure how relevant it will be to the current version, as so many of these apps have been hidden behind a paywall over the last couple of years. Of course, if it is good, then I'm not averse to paying, but £50 pa here, and £79 there, soon adds up. Anyway, I'm going to give it a try and see how it goes.

Thanks! I don’t pay for Komoot, I find their free version plenty enough.

I've just downloaded the app, and the world is on offer for only £19.99. I'll be in Japan next month, and I often visit family in Nottinghamshire, so thought I'd take the plunge. Again, thanks for the great intro to a very simple looking app.

Ah yes, you do need to do this one time payment to unlock maps, but it’s not a monthly cost.

Thanks for this. I’m a runner who cycles to mix it up. I’m also from Notts. I’m a member of Redhill Road Runners. Do you know any social cycling groups that are similar? Nothing too serious but social etc Loved the way you plan the routes, very interesting

@danieschoeman1810 Жыл бұрын

What about ETI or target finish time? Or even target milestones along the way to ensure you finish the ride in a targetted time? How will you include these in route planning?

@grantritchie Жыл бұрын

Typically I’m not too fussed about overall time! If I’m out on a punchy training ride, I’ll be more concerned with my power numbers (using a power meter). I do keep an eye on average speed too. Although average speed is so dependent on weather conditions and the amount of climbing that it’s not a consistent metric to track.

@grantritchie Жыл бұрын

I also know roughly what average speed I can do which helps to estimate overall time when I’m planning a route.

How do I see street view? I have created a route but I am not able to see the street view?

@grantritchie 6 ай бұрын

You need to click on a point on the route, and then click the little street view icon that appears.

Does it work for electric scooter

@grantritchie Жыл бұрын

I’d assume so! I’m not 100% on the legal element though as I know you’re not allowed to ride electric scooters in certain places etc.

I had no problem with either of these things. Having cycle commuted for years in a flat and windswept part of the UK, I agree with you Grant!
