Ride with GPS has expanded their popular global heatmap layer with a new personal heatmap that allows you to visualize every road, path, and trail you’ve ridden. Learn more about this new feature here…

Building on the global heatmap layer they released last year, Ride with GPS has expanded the feature to include a personal heatmap overlay to keep track of all the places you’ve travelled. Just like the global version, the personal heatmap layer pulls route data from your activities and is private to you. This data is highlighted in purple tones on the map, showing the “heat” generated by these activities so you can see where you’ve ridden. Bolder lines indicate roads and trails you’ve ridden along more frequently.

Unlike the global heatmap, the new personal heatmap is only available to those with a premium subscription, and it’s currently only available as a web feature. Premium members can turn on their personal heatmap as a map layer when viewing a route or ride as well as while planning a route in the Route Planner.
