Our map data comes from OpenStreetMap, the free map of the world.
OpenStreetMap (‘OSM’) is made by thousands of volunteer contributors who add their personal knowledge to the site, much like Wikipedia. We’ve been with OSM since its very first days and have seen it grow from a hobbyist project to the world’s best map.
If there’s something missing from cycle.travel’s mapping or routing, you can fix it on OpenStreetMap. It will then show through on cycle.travel next time we take an update.
cycle.travel takes an update from OSM roughly once a month. So if you’ve made a change in OSM, it could take a short while before it’s reflected in cycle.travel’s mapping and routing.
While the map is being updated (usually overnight, European time), the map you see on cycle.travel may temporarily switch to the default OpenStreetMap cartography, which doesn’t show bike routes. This only lasts a few hours.
cycle.travel’s mobile app gives you turn-by-turn directions and super clear mapping. Take the routes you’ve created on the cycle.travel website, and follow them in the app.
The app is optimised for a simple, easy route-finding experience. For detailed route-planning, plan your route on the website and then open it on the app.
Remember to log in with the same email address you use on the website. If you use Apple login or Google login on the website, use that in the app too. (iPhone users: we recommend against selecting “Hide my email address” as this will mean cycle.travel won’t be able to find any existing account you have.)
If you’ve been a cycle.travel supporter and you’d like to cancel this, here’s how to do it. (And thank you for being a supporter!)
There are different ways to cancel depending whether you signed up on the website, on the iPhone app, or the Android app. Please note that cycle.travel doesn’t take your payments directly so we can’t cancel your supporter status for you.
cycle.travel’s supporter scheme is provided by Patreon.com. You can cancel from their website.
You’ll no longer have access to supporter features such as extra maps, PDF downloads, the cycle.travel newsletter and additional app features.
