Built by cyclists, shaped by millions of riders
Bikemap is a global community creating and sharing cycling routes, from daily commutes to once-in-a-lifetime tours.
A shared passion
Built by a small team that rides
Meet the team
Bikemap has always been about one thing: making cycling better for cyclists.
We’re a small team, and that’s intentional. Every decision we make, every feature we build, comes from people who ride and use Bikemap themselves.
We focus exclusively on cycling, because only by staying close to one passion can we truly understand what cyclists need, whether it’s safer routes, reliable navigation, or tools that simply work when you’re out on the bike.
That focus on cycling doesn’t stop with us, it’s what allows millions of riders to shape Bikemap every day.

What we believe
Cycling is more than just a means of transportation
Cycling supports your body, your mind, and the places we live in. It helps people move through cities more freely, explore new landscapes, and spend time outdoors in a way that feels grounded and meaningful. Because we believe cycling should feel accessible and enjoyable, we focus on building tools that remove friction, clearer routes, reliable navigation, and information you can trust when you’re out on the bike.
Whether you ride to get from A to B, to clear your head, or to explore somewhere new, time spent cycling is time well spent. Bikemap exists to handle the logistics in the background, so you can stay present and enjoy the ride.
Our story
From a small team to a global community
Bikemap began with a simple idea: cyclists should be able to easily find and share great routes anywhere in the world. What started as a passion project among a handful of cyclists grew as more riders began contributing their own routes and local knowledge.
Today, millions of cyclists worldwide use Bikemap to plan, track, and share their rides. Every day, the community expands and refines a global route network, making it easier to find the right route for training, touring, or commuting, wherever you ride.
What makes Bikemap special is that it improves through use. Each shared route, insight, and experience helps make the app better for everyone, turning Bikemap into a truly community-driven network spanning more than 100 countries.

What riding with Bikemap looks like
"I am a tour leader for FIAB, the Italian branch of the European Cyclists Federation. I have been planning and organising bicycle tours for many years. Bikemap has always been my faithful companion to turn raw ideas into precise plans and routes, as well as the tool to share them with participants.”
Andrea, Italy
"Bikemap has become a reliable companion on every ride. I use it to design the routes that later become the adventures I publish on my blog. Bikemap keeps me inspired, constantly discovering new paths and enjoying every moment I spend on two wheels."
