Use cases
Ditch the tape on your stem.
The plan you'd normally scribble on paper, full-screen and readable at 40 km/h.
- Controls & cut-offs
- Two columns made for it — controls against closing times, underline the tight one.
- Race tickets & QR codes
- Screenshot your rego confirmation and flash it at sign-in, straight from your bars.
- Photos & the reason you ride
- The route map, scribbled notes — or a photo for kilometre 140, when you need reminding.
Type a card in 30 seconds in sixteen high-contrast colours, or upload and crop any photo.
Every card is a ride page — your Karoo cycles through them as you ride.
New · Weather cards
Live weather, drawn fresh for every ride.
Pick a place and the card keeps itself current: every time your Karoo grabs your cards it gets a freshly drawn forecast — conditions now, then hour by hour the three things that change a ride: temperature, wind and rain.
The rain card answers the question the overview only hints at — when it starts and how hard it gets. Make both for one place and your Karoo cycles between them as you ride.
Every card is stamped with when it was drawn, so stale numbers can never pass themselves off as fresh.
One place, two layouts — the overview and the rain.
Free · Start screens
Make the start screen yours.
RideCards doesn't stop at ride pages. Pick any photo — the family, the gorge, last summer's tour — and it becomes your Karoo's start screen, panning behind your ride profiles as you swipe.
Included free with every account, alongside your first card.
Any photo, straight from your phone.
