In 2011, the mountain bike magazine Ride was one of the first bike magazines whose issues could be viewed on tablets. Right from the start, Ride prepared every single issue anew and specifically for tablet display. Publishing the PDF version - as many magazines still do today - was not enough for Ride. Each magazine is therefore still produced independently for the tablet in addition to being printed, and interactive elements are added. The highlight of Ride is that all subscribers can register in the app with their Ride.ch web login and receive all available issues free of charge. However, it is also possible to buy individual issues separately for the tablet via the Apple and Google stores.

Now Ride is going one step further and integrating the Singletrail Map web map into the app. Ride readers with a Gold subscription can display the web map on their tablet and thus access the entire database of the Singletrail Map. Search options, location display and zoom function are of course all included.

The Ride tablet app can be obtained from the Apple and Google stores. Existing app users will need to update the app to take advantage of the new features.
