How far ahead can I see?

Free shows a 3-day forecast and Pro shows 14 days. Here is what that means when you plan a ride.

  • Free: 3 days ahead.
  • Pro: 14 days ahead.

Dates beyond your range appear locked in the departure chooser, and selecting one prompts you to upgrade.

Scoring covers the hours you choose in scoring hours, which are 6am to 8pm by default.
