About this app
Open Bike Nights and the first thing you see is what's on tonight.
That's usually the question, isn't it. It's Wednesday, the weather's holding, and you'd rather not spend twenty minutes trawling Facebook groups to find out whether anything's happening within an hour's ride.
WHAT'S IN IT
Hundreds of bike nights across the UK on one map, colour-coded by which night they run. Tap any pin for the address, the time, how often it runs, and whether it's a summer-only meet. Filter to tonight, or to any night of the week.
A separate list of one-off events rallies, shows, road racing, ride-outs soonest first, with the dates checked against the organiser's own listing.
Search by name, so if you've heard of a meet but don't know where it is, you can just look it up.
WHERE THE INFORMATION COMES FROM
The bike nights started as a Google map kept over several years and cleaned up before it went into the app. Events are verified individually before they're published, and each one shows you when it was last checked.
WHERE IT DOESN'T PRETEND
Plenty of bike nights have never had a start time written down anywhere. Where a time isn't confirmed, this app says so rather than inventing one — because a wrong time sends you to an empty car park, which is worse than no time at all.
The same goes for schedules. If we can't tell whether a fortnightly meet falls this week or next, we don't guess.
NO TRACKING, AND AN ACCOUNT ONLY IF YOU WANT ONE
No advertising and no analytics. The app asks where you are only if you tap Locate me, uses it to move the map, and never stores it or sends it anywhere.
You don't need an account to use the map or the events list. Signing in is only needed to save a meet or send one in, and it works with a one-time code sent to your email address there's no password for us to lose.
The meets are stored on your phone too, so a lay-by with one bar of signal still shows you the map.
HELP KEEP IT RIGHT
Meets move, change night, and stop running. Riders on the ground know before we do. There's a button to tell us, and it gets read.
Ride sensibly and park considerately whether these meets keep existing depends largely on how riders behave at them.
