Cyclists.com is building a destination-led route library — combining curated rides, local knowledge, climb guides, gravel routes, GPX downloads and rider stories. Not a feed. A library.

The problem
Cycling apps record rides. They don’t organise them beautifully.
Strava is great for tracking performance. Komoot is useful for planning. But there is no definitive global directory of curated, categorised, experience-led cycling routes.
01
Rides get buried in activity feeds
Strava is a record-keeper. The most beautiful routes scroll past, never to be discovered again.
02
Routes lack destination context
A line on a map is not a guide. Cyclists need to know what makes a ride worth a flight.
03
Great local knowledge is fragmented
The best advice lives in WhatsApp groups, Reddit threads and forgotten blogs. We pull it into one library.
The library
A global ride library built around discovery.
Three layers. One coherent way to find a great ride — whether you’re planning a trip, a Sunday spin, or your next big climb.
Layer 01
Destination hubs
Cycling in Girona, Mallorca, Slovenia, Siem Reap. Rich, editorial pages that show why a place is worth riding.

Layer 02

A ride page, in detail
Every route gets the page it deserves.
Not a GPX dump. A guide. Maps, surface notes, climb profiles, café stops, hazards, photos, and the local context that turns a ride into a story.

How it scales
Seeded intelligently. Improved by riders.
Map data gets us to scale. Real cyclists make it good. The library grows the way Wikipedia did — with structure, but never closed.
- Step 01
Open map data
OpenStreetMap, elevation models, surface types and points of interest as raw input.
- Step 02
Route candidates
Algorithmic generation of plausible loops, climbs and point-to-points across every region.
- Step 03
Scoring engine
Ranked by traffic, surface quality, scenery, gradient profile and proximity to landmarks.
- Step 04
Curated ride pages
Editorial pass adds context, photos, café stops, hazards and the local know-how.
- Step 05
Rider contributions
Local cyclists, ambassadors and partners refine and expand the library over time.
