Top 10 Android Bike Apps

We recently complied a great top 10 iPhone and iPad Biking app list which has proved to be immensely popular. We didn’t want all our Android friends missing out, so we have put together the Top 10 Android Biking Apps too – take a look at these, and get downloading.

B.iCycle

media_1304889172176.png

The popular iPhone biking app now available on the Android platform! B.iCycle – GPS cycling computer for Road & Mountain Biking is a next generation cyclometer for your phone.

– Accurate values for current speed, average speed, maximum speed, total distance, trip distance, current altitude, climbed altitude, burned calories as well as trip time. Units can be set to US or metric.
– Watch your bike automatically move on the map and zoom in on your trail
– Receive your trips via email (KML and GPX) and review them at home (e.g., with Google Earth) or share them with other bikers. You can send the data after each ride or anytime later from your track history (e.g. when there is no cellular network available).
– Suspend, pause, and resume for trips allows you to receive calls or take a break
Based on countless test rides and refinement we calculate all values with maximum precision of the built in GPS. In contrast to standard cyclometers you do not have to calibrate B.iCycle to your bike. It just works – out of the box. For the full experience we recommend to use a bike mount.
