I can't believe it's already a decade since I did my one long bicycle tour.

Ja, ich weiß, es ist gegen das "Gesetz", aber ich fahre auch 200km am Stück mit Flatpedalen und habe meine Gründe.

Leider wird es immer schwieriger Schuhe zu finden, die:

• keine Cleat-Aufnahme haben
• kein BOA, keine Schnallen
• dafür aber eine möglichst harte/stabile Sohle besitzen

Irgendwelche Tipps oder Geheimtipps? 👀

Hey fedi bicyclerspersons, I'm looking for some recommendations for GPS navigation, preferably that just runs on my phone (iOS). Sounds easy, but not. What I want:

1. I need to be able to design my own routes, and correct generated or existing routes. It would be sufficient to be able to upload a GPX file, as I already use CyclOSM/Brouter extensively. The important thing is that I'm able to either do turn-by-turn nav on these routes, or at least generate cue sheets.

2. Offline mode would be extremely helpful. Coverage is generally good where I am, but I know that I can't count on it.

3. I'd strongly prefer to not have to pay $80/year for the privilege of the above, which is what RideWithGPS was going to cost (premium required to upload tracks and generate cue sheets).

What I don't want:

1. Social anything. Not into being surveilled for the likes, don't need to ruin perfectly good bike rides with gamification.

2. Ride recording, vitals monitoring—I have something for that which does what I need.

Again, a phone app would be preferred; I'd consider a dedicated bike computer that does the above and doesn't tether me to a cloud account or subscription fees.

Any ideers? Thanks!

I cycled from Lake Constance to the North Sea in 21 days. Komoot for routing, spreadsheet for stages, WhatsApp for the family. It worked — barely. So I built one tool that does all of it.
