Hey, raceshape creator here. Thanks for posting about the site. Your use case was exactly how I was intending the map to be used.

The rides on the map are those that have been raceshaped, the sites main feature where you can compare segment efforts to get a second by second time gap to see where you gained and lost time. So it’s a weird, and small, subset of all Strava data. But it still has pretty good global coverage.

The zoom level is limited by memory of the machine the site is running. Which is related to cost. I was actually going to add 2 zoom levels this morning, but because of your post I don’t want to have the downtime, maybe in a few days. Talk about timing

Nice, thanks for sharing. I’ve been using the Garmin Connect heatmap tool for a few months to plan out new routes, this looks even better.

Neat little cross-post on BSNYC today; nice.

I think we should get a little race together with you, BSNYC, and FatCyclist. I’m pretty sure you’d tear both of them to pieces…
