How to use the apps

Six steps to your first ride

Bike Brevard Map and Bike Brevard Kids work the same way, so these steps cover both. The pictures are from Bike Brevard Map.

1. 

   1Open the Trail Map

   • The green line is the paved path. Gray lines are connectors: sidewalks, quiet streets and greenways that join it.
   • The first card explains the map. Tap it for route details and trailheads, or put it away with the ×.
2. 

   2Switch on what you’re after

   • Tap a category on the right edge of the screen, and its pins appear on the map.
   • The list sits at the bottom. Tap it or slide it up to read every stop, ordered by mile.
   • Tap the category again to switch it off.
3. 

   3Open a place

   • Tap a pin or a row in the list.
   • The card says what the place is, its mile marker and its hours, and whether the way there suits small kids.
4. 

   4Ride to here

   • Tap Ride to here on the card. It needs your location, and the app asks first.
   • The way is drawn along the path and connectors, with how far it is and about how long it takes by bike.
   • This is a drawn way with miles to go, not turn-by-turn directions, so keep your eyes on the path.
5. 

   5Pick an Adventure

   • Tap the Adventures tab at the bottom for rides locals actually do.
   • Each ride has its distance, rolling time, effort, how it goes with kids, and its stops.
6. 

   6Show route on map

   • Tap Show route on map to draw the whole ride with numbered stops.
   • Tap a number to read that stop’s note, and step through the stops from the bottom card.
   • With location on, the next stop is marked as you ride.
