Guided e-bike ride navigation for shops and their riders
October 13, 2026Stan Schooten
goridego
goridego is a three-part platform that turns guided e-bike rides into a smooth experience for rental shops and their riders. Shop owners publish routes; riders scan a QR code and follow turn-by-turn GPS navigation on their phone.

The problem

E-bike rental shops run 2–3 hour guided rides along fixed circular routes. Today, riders follow static Google Maps waypoints — no real-time guidance, no GPX support, no multi-language instructions. Paid navigation apps like Komoot are built for individual cyclists; they aren't affordable or practical for a shop owner managing dozens of riders a day.

The solution

Plus a rider web app at go.rideguidego.com for riders who don't want to install the app: same poster link, browser-based navigation with spoken directions.

How it works

  1. The shop owner creates or imports a route in the dashboard.
  2. A QR code is printed on a poster or handout.
  3. The rider scans the QR (or types the link) — one credit from the shop's pool is consumed.
  4. Turn-by-turn GPS navigation starts, and the route saves itself to the rider's account.
