Written by Mark Connolly | May 11, 2023

We have some exciting news today. 

The initial release of Cycling Guide is now available in the App Store for iPhone and in Google Play for Android. That means anyone can install and use the app now to get great low-stress bike routes.

It’s been a long ride (!) to get here, but it’s been worth it. Working closely with CycleWR and supported by extensive real world cycling by our beta testers we’ve created an app that will appeal to people who would like to cycle more but feel like they lack the expertise, experience, or knowledge to do so comfortably. (Of course, it will be a great experience for more seasoned cyclists as well.)

Here are some more details on what you'll be able to do with Cycling Guide:

  • Get great low-stress cycling routes
  • Find bicycle parking to support your rides
  • Try curated recreational rides from Explore Waterloo Region
  • Find cycling-friendly businesses, courtesy of Ontario By Bike

Simply put, Cycling Guide provides low-stress cycling routes to anyone who wants to cycle more in Waterloo Region. And now we’re all looking forward to a summer of fun cycling.

By the way, while it's not in Waterloo Region, the geographic coverage area for Cycling Guide also includes Guelph and parts of Wellington County. That means even more people can find low-stress routes. And we hope to see Cycling Guide reach other communities as well.

So whether you use an iPhone or an Android phone, now’s the perfect time to install Cycling Guide and find out just how liberating a low-stress bike ride can be. Happy cycling everyone.
