Komoot Group Tours Make it Easier to Ride Together, Plus Garmin Mapping w/o Built-in Navigation!

Click to email a link to a friend If you’re looking for somewhere to ride in an unfamiliar place, Komoot is a great place to start. The app is part ride planner, part social platform allowing riders from all over the world to share their favorite adventures. Now, Komoot is making it easier than ever for you to share your own adventure with riders around you.

The most recent update is the new Group Tours feature that allows Komoot users to turn any planned tour into a social gathering. By simply sharing a QR code, other participants can instantly gain access to the planned tour on their phone so the whole crew can follow along at their own pace. The QR codes can also be printed out which could make the feature a useful tool for recurring group rides – like a bike shop that hosts a weekly ride.

Get a mechanical? Need to stop for coffee? The tour organizer can also make updates to the route, and an adjusted itinerary will be sent out to all users in real-time. As a result, all of the group should be able to find their way to the meet-up points, even if they get separated.Hoping to make it easier to find the best tours, Komoot is also updating the tour listings with star ratings.

Discovering new routes is also getting easier with the options to explore routes on a map, find routes that start at a specific point or include a specific highlight, and explore the best routes in the area using the star rating. You’ll also find new route filters to allow you to search for rides based on distance, elevation, surface type, starting point, etc.Finally, Komoot is bringing a big update to Garmin users with a premium Komoot account.

Along with the maps, Live Sync allows users to ‘Navigate with Device’ on all Garmin devices that can run the Komoot Connect IQ app. The feature allows users to send Komoot Tours to the device and to start navigation with the push of a button without having to search for the route on the device list. You can also update tours while you’re navigating without interrupting the current activity.VehiclesUpdated Surly Big Easy 2.

More than 400 jobs saved as manufacturing group companies sold out of administrationMore than 400 jobs have been saved after a raft of companies across a manufacturing group were sold out of administration. Richard Harrison and Howard Smith from Interpath Advisory were appointed as joint administrators to 14 companies across the Pexion Group on March 19. Stuart Irwin and Richard Harrison were appointed joint administrators over another group subsidiary, Nitronica Ltd, on the same date. Headquartered in Chorley, the Pexion Group specialises in the design, development and manufacture of high specification electronic components and sub-assemblies for high-tech industries. The group comprises of parent company Pexion Ltd and 14 trading subsidiaries. Over recent months, the group had experienced challenging trading conditions and had started to come under increasing financial pressure from its suppliers. This in turn put pressure on its liquidity position. In response, the directors sought to undertake a review of the sale and restructuring options available to them, but when a solvent solution could not be found, they took steps to seek the appointment of administrators. Immediately following their appointment, the joint administrators completed six separate transactions, safeguarding the future 13 of the group's operating subsidiaries, and preserving 430 jobs at sites across the country.
