Be a supporter

Become a cycle.travel supporter!

I hope cycle.travel is finding great rides for you.

I'm Richard and I make cycle.travel to find the sort of routes that I like - low traffic, great scenery, and enjoyable to ride.

You don't have to "go premium" or "unlock regions" to use cycle.travel. But if you're enjoying the website and app, I'd love it if you were to become a supporter. A small contribution helps keep the map servers running and means I can spend more time building fun new features.

Extra features for supporters

To say thanks, cycle.travel supporters get these extra features:

  • Extra maps: The best local maps including Ordnance Survey (UK), IGN (France), Swisstopo and more. Plus OpenCycleMap, satellite maps and more.
  • Supporter newsletter: A regular update on what’s new on cycle.travel.
  • Weather forecasts: Check the latest forecast, plus the likely weather for the time of year you’ll be cycling.
  • Supporter icon: A special icon by your name plus (for Cake and Beer supporters) your name in lights on the supporters’ page.

And in the mobile app, you’ll also get:

  • Contours: Detailed contours and hill-shading on the maps.
  • Sketch mode: The easiest way to plot a route - just draw it with your finger!
  • Find points of interest: Instant search for shops, cafes, pubs, and bike shops - and it works offline so you won't be stuck if there's no reception.
  • Tappable icons: Tap symbols on the map for more details and web links.
