AI ride breakdown: what it can do
The coach reads your ride from the numbers, compares it to your own baseline, and answers questions.
The star button in the ride header opens the breakdown. The app derives two dozen metrics from the track — turns and hairpins separately for left and right, stalls on climbs, hard stops, heart-rate zones, the surface of each kilometer — and the coach explains those.
Why the breakdown is specific to you:
- It knows your baseline — average numbers over your recent rides. So instead of “decent pace” you read “left turns at 8.2 km/h against your usual 12.9”.
- It remembers past advice and checks whether it worked, instead of repeating the same thing over and over.
- It sees the surface: speed on a paved transfer doesn’t count as technique; the off-road is what gets analyzed.
- At the end — one measurable task for the next ride, always about technique: “hold 10 km/h or more in left hairpins (8.2 today)”.
Ask the coach. Under the breakdown there’s a question field: why the lefts are worse, which drill to do, is this fatigue or technique. It answers based on your own ride and remembers the conversation. Three questions per breakdown are free.
Rebuild. The breakdown is saved and opens instantly. If the ride’s data changed — elevations arrived, a watch track was added — the “Rebuild breakdown” button under the text builds it anew from the fresh data.
It will break down a ride without heart rate too, but notes that it can’t see the load: speed alone can’t tell “physically hard” from “technically hard”. A watch fixes that — see the Garmin article.
