As an alternative to Google Maps or apps like Komoot, GeoVelo describes itself as “The secure and civic bike navigation – Ride serenely and impact the decisions of new bike paths in your city”

Our algorithm favors cycle paths and avoids dangerous areas. Find different routes according to your type of bike (traditional, electric, cargo…) and your practice!

Influence decisions for new bike lanes in your city

After anonymization, the journeys made are analyzed to allow cities to better understand cycling trips, and to better target future cycle paths.

Looks promising as it’s a free app with no adverts and it’s not owned by some giant tech company. Will be trying GeoVelo out on my next ride!
