How sunride works

  1. 1

    Add your route

    Upload a GPX file – or draw your route freehand on the map.

  2. 2

    Pick your start time and pace

    sunride works out when you will reach each point of the route, including climbs and descents.

  3. 3

    Ride prepared

    Get a forecast for exactly your ride – so you know what to expect.

GPX upload or free draw

Two ways to add your route: upload a GPX file – or draw it freehand on the map, no file needed. Save routes you ride often as favorites.

Weather timed to your real pace

sunride shows you your weather at the right time and in the right places along your ride. So you know how cold it is at the top of the pass, when to expect a headwind, and whether you'll be home before the rain.

Your own commutes – there and back

Save your commutes, e.g. your ride to work, and sunride checks both time windows every day: temperature and ride score for the way there and back, and one outfit that works in the morning and on the ride home.

Always enough fuel

sunride calculates the carbs and water you'll need from your ride's pace and duration plus your personal consumption, and recommends a mix from your usual snacks. Bonking is a thing of the past.

Frequently asked questions

Which weather data does sunride use?

sunride uses forecast data from Open-Meteo, which combines the models of national weather services, and calculates the weather for the time you will actually reach each point of your route.

Do I need a GPX file?

No. You can upload a GPX file or simply draw your route freehand on the map.

Is sunride free?

Yes, the route weather forecast is free. On top of that, every new account gets 60 days of Weather+ for free, and it simply switches back to the free version afterwards. Weather+ adds the detailed weather chart, clothing recommendations and commute planning; after the trial it costs 1.99€ per month.

How do commute routes work?

Save any route you ride regularly – to work, to training or to your weekly group ride. Pick a saved route or upload one, choose whether it is one-way or already a round trip, and set your usual departure times and days. sunride then shows the weather and a ride score for both directions and suggests one outfit for the whole day – items you only need on the colder leg are marked as optional to pack.

Which devices does sunride run on?

sunride runs in any modern browser, as an Android app, and on iPhone and iPad via "Add to Home Screen".

Made by cyclists

sunride started because a single weather forecast is not enough for a long ride: the weather at the start says little about the pass two hours later. And how cold will the descent be? We try to offer real value to every cyclist. sunride is developed independently in Switzerland.
