Tour Tracker Pro Cycling

When my friends ask “isn’t it boring, just watching them whoosh by?”, I explain how I not only watch them go by (when I’m watching in person), but I watch the progress of the race (and all the mini competitions within the race) on this great app. When I’m watching on TV at home, Tour Tracker is my constant companion, to know who’s where, who took the KOM points, how many bonus points or seconds are on offer, what the gradients are, what happened before I tuned in, etc. Every season, I upgrade to the Team version, but I would genuinely pay much more — I’m happy to support this great app, and the team that brings it to me.

I rarely give app reviews. But I’ve been using Tour Tracker for years now, and they have really stepped up their game in 2020. New features such as gradients on climbs and the “time machine” feature to stream your data as if it’s live during a race replay are fantastic. SOOO much data is available through just a few clicks. If you are a pro cycling fan, this app is indispensable! It is essential as a companion to watching the race, or just following along with events if you can’t stream video where you’re at. It’s literally the first thing I look at when I wake up each morning of a big race. There is a nominal annual subscription to get most of the races (two tiers of subscription - with the most expensive being about US$10 per year). Pay the subscription - if you love pro cycling, you won’t be disappointed.

Really a great app. I use this app and the $60 NBC Gold Cycling App for my cycling fix. I like the NBC for the video coverage of mostly just mountain stages and time trial only and this for everything else. If I had to choose though I would only go with Tour Tracker. One underrated feature of tour tracker is how blazing fast all the page loads are and how well it’s layer out. In 10 minutes I can get everything I need to know for the days 4 hours of racing. he live feed commentary is excellent. The replays and clips are great. The ability to quickly and effortlessly track all the riders all the teams all the races all the stages without adds or slow load time. See the maps see the layout see profile and read the social feeds. No other app does anything remotely close to even part of this. And for $3 a year it’s a steal. Easily has a value closer to $20 when compared to other sports tracking apps.
