Road cycling is a popular sport for fitness and recreation throughout the world. In many urban areas, the sport has spurred communities or clubs that not only provide opportunities for its members to play the sport, but also provide a medium for developing sport performance through group rides and activities. Many mobile applications have been developed for activity tracking and providing important metrics while doing sport activities as well as gamification through leaderboards in comparing performance with others. No mobile application, however, has been developed for community based activities where members not only can develop themselves, but also improve the interactions and engagement of group rides. The Bike App as a prototype application was developed for such purposes. The development of the app involved a cycling community based in Jakarta.
