Please enter rides within, to, or from Pasadena only.
1 round trip = 2 rides (honor system).
Using the Love to Ride App and Website:
LoveToRide.net is a free app to count rides, miles, and carbon savings. It provides data anonymously to improve biking infrastructure in communities.
The easiest way to log a ride is to add it manually: On the app Me page, click the + field in the top right corner.
Click Log a Ride.
Choose the date, estimate the distance in miles, and click Log Ride (honor system).
You don’t need to bring your phone along. You can log rides on the website as well. Remember that Pasadena Bike Perks rewards your number of rides, not miles.
For additional options like GPS tracking of your routes and miles, bring your phone along and allow the app to automatically log your rides. Simply go to Settings and Location on your phone and select Always. Note that automatic logging can take an hour or two before logged rides show on the Pasadena Bike Perks group page.
