Questions and answers
What is ridingding?
A place to find group rides near you and join them. Bike shops, clubs, cafés and riders post their rides; you pick one and show up.
Does it cost anything?
No. The app is free, and so is joining a ride.
How do I join a ride?
Open the ride and tap Join. It lands in My rides, and the organiser knows you're coming. When a ride is full, you can still join its waitlist.
What does the heart do?
It marks a ride as interesting without joining it. It sits in My rides, and 2 days before the ride we email you the places left — unless you've joined by then.
I can't make it any more. What do I do?
Open the ride and cancel. Your place goes back to the group, and to the first rider on the waitlist if there is one.
Who sees that I'm coming?
Riders signed in to ridingding see the full name of who has joined a ride. You can hide your name in Profile › Privacy: you still count towards the places taken, you simply aren't named.
Can I post my own ride?
Yes. Anyone can host a private ride from My rides: it isn't listed anywhere, and only people you send the link to can find it and join.
How do I get my rides listed for everyone?
Listing is for organisers — shops, clubs, cafés, teams. Apply from Profile › Become an organiser. Once accepted, your rides appear in search, on the map and on your organisation's page.
Can I get the route on my bike computer?
When the organiser adds a GPX and allows it, riders who joined can download it from the ride's page and send it to their bike computer or app.
Who is responsible for a ride?
Its organiser, not ridingding. You ride at your own risk: check the route, the pace and your bike before you go.
How do I delete my account?
Profile › Privacy › Delete account. It's immediate and can't be undone: your rides, registrations and photo go with it.
