Ride the City is a bicycle routing application that will help you find a safe
bike route from point A to point B in 35 cities (listed below).

Like other mapping and routing applications, Ride the City finds the shortest
distance between two points, with a difference. First, Ride the City avoids
roads that aren't meant for biking, like highways and busy arterial streets.
Second, Ride the City tries to steer cyclists toward routes that maximize the
use of bike lanes, bike paths, greenways, and other bike-friendly streets
while avoiding steep hills.

The app includes bicycling directions for the following cities:

- ADELAIDE, AUSTRALIA
- ATLANTA, GA
- AUSTIN, TX
- BARCELONA, SPAIN
- BOSTON, MA
- BRISBANE, QUEENSLAND
- CHICAGO, IL
- LOUISVILLE, KY

Features include:

* Auto completes addresses: Ride the City remembers your previously entered addresses.

* Works in 26 cities: The Ride the City app now includes all the cities that are present on the Ride the City website (www.ridethecity.com). The app automatically defaults to the city of your location, but you can change the default to any of the other cities.

* Remembers your last route: If you leave the Ride the City app for any reason and come back to it later, it will bring you to the last route you generated, just as you left it.

FEATURES:

* Bike shops: Ride the City displays bike shops and bike rental facilities, providing contact information and hours of operation. To find a quick bike route to a bike shop, simply touch a bike shop icon on the map and choose 'bike here'. For the nearest bike shops, just touch the 'Bike Shops' button below the map; Ride the City will display the ten bike shops closest to your current location.

* Route details: When a route is generated, Ride the City displays the distance, estimated biking time, and elevation gain. It also tells you if a street along your route is a bike lane, bike path, or a caution area.

* Feedback: We take your feedback very seriously. Use the 'report an error' button on the bottom left of the map to submit routing problems and suggestions, or you can email us at [info@ridethecity.com](mailto:info@ridethecity.com). We will quickly apply your suggestions so you get a better route the next time you use Ride the City.

* Updates: Get free updates as we roll out improvements and new features to make the application better. Let us know if there’s a particular feature that you’d like to see on the app by sending us an email at [info@ridethecity.com](mailto:info@ridethecity.com).
