VeloRand: Random Bike Routes

Patrick Engels-Kolodziej

About this app

Want to go for a ride but can't think of a new route? VeloRand rolls the dice and generates a bike route at your target distance – starting from your location or any point you choose.

NEW: WIND-SMART ROUTING
• Your loop is automatically aligned with the current wind: first half into the wind, tailwind on the way home
• Live wind direction and speed shown in the planner and route summary
• Prefer pure randomness? Turn it off with a single switch

HOW IT WORKS
• Set your target distance
• Pick a route type: Trekking, Road bike, Gravel, or Safety
• Choose an elevation preference: flat, balanced, or hills OK
• Optional: avoid traffic, avoid unsafe roads, prefer forests or rivers
• Optional: pin fixed points the route must pass through
• Tap the dice button – your route is ready

AFTER GENERATING
• Elevation profile chart with a meter scale
• Estimated ride time based on your average speed
• Don't like the route? Just regenerate – wind alignment included
• Save routes under your own name and revisit them later
• Export as GPX to share or save to your device

SETTINGS
Fine-tune your average speed, unit (km/h or mph), and distance tolerance.

Perfect for anyone who wants a spontaneous new route without spending hours planning one themselves.
