Before. During. After.

The app works best as a simple ride-prep system, not a pile of random tools. Start with the check, prep your fuel and buddy info, then use Pro reports when you want deeper route planning.

Before you ride
Start Pre-Ride Check

Check glucose context, ride type, solo risk, fuel and basic prep before you drop in.

Generic advice
doesn't cut it on trail.

Most diabetes apps weren't built for someone pinning a berm at 40km/h with adrenaline, trail fatigue and remote terrain in the mix.

⚑
DH affects BG differently
High-adrenaline riding can affect blood glucose in unpredictable ways β€” spikes, drops, or delayed changes β€” unlike steady aerobic cycling. Generic advice doesn't account for this.
🌲
You're remote
A hypo on a chairlift or in a forest is not the same as a hypo at the gym. Distance from help changes everything.
🎭
Symptoms get blurred
Adrenaline can make hypo symptoms harder to recognise β€” shaking, sweating and confusion can overlap with normal ride stress. That's a dangerous overlap.
πŸ“±
Apps aren't built for you
Dexcom, mySugr, Libre β€” brilliant tools. Zero context for trail type, intensity, or what happens to your BG after a DH run.

"I'm Type 2 diabetic and I downhill mountain bike. I couldn't find a single tool that understood both. Every app assumed I was jogging, not sending it on a black run. So I decided to build what I needed β€” and share it with everyone else in the same position."
