A free Epic Ride Weather alternative
Route weather in your browser, free, no account. Free. No account. Works on any phone or computer.
Epic Ride Weather made route weather popular, and it’s a good app. If you’re looking for something different, whether that’s a free option, something that runs in a browser, or a forecast that explains itself in plain words, Route Forecast is worth a try.
What Route Forecast does
- Wind relative to your direction of travel on every stretch, with the minutes it adds or saves.
- A one-line answer up top: “Light winds, but a headwind on the back half, and it looks dry.”
- Rain timing on the route, feels-like at riding speed, air quality, trail dryness and gusty crosswind warnings.
- Ride mode with live wind, voice alerts and offline maps for dead zones.
- Share a forecast to a friend as a text with a live link.
- GPX, FIT and TCX files, Strava and Ride with GPS links.
How it’s different
- Free and in your browser, nothing to install. Add it to your home screen if you like.
- No account. Your routes stay on your device.
- Plain-language answers instead of a wall of charts. The charts are there if you want them.
