About this app

Epic Ride Weather helps you choose the best ride for the weather, then shows you the conditions you'll encounter along the way. Find the best rides and start times from your own routes and past rides, or get a detailed forecast for a ride you've already planned.

See the wind, rain, temperature, and air quality along your route, at the time you'll actually be there.

Official weather supplier to Team Visma | Lease a Bike, used for race strategy at the Tour de France, Giro d'Italia, and Vuelta a España.

Use Epic Ride Weather to:

• Find the best ride for the weather
• Choose the best time of day to ride
• See where you'll get a headwind, tailwind, or crosswind
• Know when and where rain is likely
• Pick the right kit before you leave
• Plan long rides and multi-day tours around changing conditions

FIND THE BEST RIDE

Choose the best ride and start time based on the forecast. Epic Ride Weather compares your routes and past rides to find the most favorable weather conditions for the day you want to ride, so you can make the most of the weather.

WEATHER ALONG YOUR ROUTE

Weather can change a lot over four hours and 100 km (60 miles). A city forecast can't tell you about the headwind or a 10 degree temperature drop by the time you crest the climb at 11 am.

Epic Ride Weather combines your route and expected pace to forecast temperature, feels-like temperature, wind, precipitation, and more, at the time you'll reach each part of your route.

UNDERSTAND THE WIND

See wind speed and direction along your route, relative to the way you're riding. Know where the headwind starts, where you'll get a tailwind, and which way to ride the loop.

FIND THE BEST TIME TO RIDE

Compare start times throughout the day. Two hours can be the difference between a soaking and a dry ride, or between a strong headwind and a calm evening.

AIR QUALITY ALONG YOUR ROUTE

See the Air Quality Index along your route, with details on individual pollutants. See where air quality is worst and when conditions improve, especially when wildfire smoke is changing with the wind.

USE THE ROUTES YOU ALREADY HAVE

Connect to Strava, Ride with GPS, Komoot, Garmin Connect, Trailforks, MapMyRide, Plotaroute, and Runkeeper, or open a GPX, FIT, or TCX file.

You can also forecast Strava Segments to see which of your favorites have the wind behind you today.

Professional teams can connect directly to VeloViewer Race Hub.

BUILT FOR CYCLISTS

Road, gravel, mountain, bikepacking, commuting, racing: anything where you're outside long enough for the weather to change.

Epic Ride Weather is free to download and includes a 30-day trial with 1,000 forecasts, enough for around 30 to 40 rides of 100 km (60 miles).

Continued use requires a monthly or annual subscription. You can subscribe and pay through your Google Play account. Your subscription will automatically renew unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Subscriptions may be managed by the user and auto-renewal may be turned off by going to the Account Settings after purchase. Any unused portion of a free trial period, if offered, will be forfeited when the user purchases a subscription to that publication, where applicable.

Great support, after i had an issue with phone, was helped resolve it even though it had nothing to do with the app. in general great app to figure out weather and more importantly tail winds for me. One suggestion would be, if it is possible, to have an alert of tail winds on your favourite segments :) Maybe also to choose your min wind speed to get alerted

Thanks Karlo! We don't have alerts, yet, but did you know that you can sort your favorite segments by tailwind? https://www.epicrideweather.com/2018/02/03/strava-segments-by-tailwind/

Worth the subscription, but it's better for urban areas where there are a lot of weather stations. It would be nice to have some sense of how far away the forecast was from--on one big ride it said the high would be 85, actual was 105, because the nearest station was very far from where the ride was. Still gets 5 stars because most of the time it's awesome.

I really like this app. I find it to be accurate and extremely useful when planning bike rides. However, the color for cloud cover is too similar to the color for precipitation and it's difficult to tell the difference. I am much more concerned with getting caught in the rain than it being cloudy! ------------------------------------------------------ Update after the developer responded to my review... I did not know I could change the colors. That's fantastic! Thank you! 5 stars.
