Ever gotten to the overnight town of a weeklong bike ride without knowing where your friends were? Ever wanted to quickly share a fun location you found with your teammates? Then Ride Buddy may be a good app for you.
Ride Buddy maintains a list of e-mail addresses that you can populate from your iPhone’s address book. Using GPS coordinates, Ride Buddy lets you quickly and easily generate an e-mail with a Google Maps weblink and send it to this address list. The recipients don’t all need to have iPhones - any smartphone that can display Google Maps will show your current location.
Between rides, program the name and date of your next ride, and Ride Buddy will show a countdown to the event. Select your own background images, and simply shake the phone to advance to the next image.
