Personalised cycling map print: your ride on a real map

A personalised cycling map print is a ride you actually did, drawn on a real map. Not a poster of a famous climb somebody else rode — yours, from the file your bike computer or Strava has, with the roads it went along and the numbers it recorded.

The ride on the map

Connect Strava or drop in the FIT or GPX, and the route is drawn on one of seven map styles. Terrain is the one for a mountain ride: the relief under the line shows why the pace dropped at kilometre 80. Streets puts the names on; Light and Warm keep the map pale so the line carries the sheet; Dark is the ride at night. Or no map at all, and the ride is a clean line on paper — for a route whose shape says enough on its own.

The map is drawn from Mapbox and OpenStreetMap data at print resolution for the size you order, with their credit in small type on the sheet. It is not a screenshot made bigger.

Numbers a cyclist cares about

Under the line: distance, moving time, elevation gain, average speed in km/h, and, if the file has them, average and peak power, heart rate and cadence. A ride print can also carry the elevation profile as a band under the map, so the climb is visible twice. You pick which numbers go on; the values come from the file. What the numbers mean covers what each one is, and why your elevation gain and Strava's may differ by a few metres.

Only the climb

A hundred kilometres to the foot of the mountain and fourteen up it: the print can be the fourteen. In the editor you crop the start and end of the route, with the elevation profile behind the handles so you can see where the climb begins, or pick the Strava segment and the cut lands exactly on it. The numbers are then measured on the part you keep.

A whole season

Bring every ride from the year and the sheet becomes a heatmap: the roads you use most, drawn darkest. Strava's own heatmap has no export; this is made from your files.

Sizes, paper, frame

30×40, 50×70 or 70×100 cm on Museum 250 gsm or Classic 170 gsm, from 319 kr for the route print. Framed in a solid wood frame, white, black, wood or dark wood, from 799 kr. A long ride is a wide shape, and the 50×70 is where most rides look right; the big sheet is for the season.

Gifts, and other people's rides

For a rider who owns everything: their own ride, which nobody else can buy. You need their file. They export it from Strava, free on any plan, or a public activity on Strava has a download button that gives you the route. Gifts for a cyclist who owns everything.

The first and last 500 metres are trimmed before anything is drawn, so the print starts on a road and not at a door. Printed to order in two to four working days, shipped in Denmark and the EU. All the ways to print a ride are on Strava prints.

From the ride to the wall

  1. 1

    Bring the ride

    Connect Strava and pick the ride, or drop in the FIT or GPX from your bike computer. Read in your browser, never uploaded.

  2. 2

    Choose the map, crop the climb

    Seven map styles or none. Crop to the climb if that is the print, or pick the Strava segment. Choose the numbers under the line: distance, time, elevation, speed, power.

  3. 3

    We print and post it

    Museum 250 gsm or Classic 170 gsm, loose or framed. Two to four working days, then shipping in Denmark and the EU.

Your ride, on a real map

Terrain for the mountain. Streets for the city. Nothing for the shape alone.

Questions people actually ask

How are personalised cycling prints made?

From your own recording. The FIT or GPX from your computer, or the activity from a connected Strava account, is drawn in your browser onto the sheet you choose, and we print exactly that on museum paper.

How do I turn a bike ride into a poster?

Open the editor, connect Strava or drop the file, pick a map style and a size, choose the numbers, order. Five minutes, and you see the print before you pay.

How long does it take to get a bike map printed?

Two to four working days to make, then shipping on top. Denmark and the EU only.

Can I print just the climb?

Yes. Crop the start and end in the editor, with the elevation profile behind the handles, or pick the Strava segment and the cut lands on it. The numbers are measured on the part you keep.

Is the elevation gain the same as Strava's?

Close, rarely identical. Strava and your device correct the barometer differently. The print uses the file's own total when it has one; when you crop, it is measured on the kept part.

Does it work with Garmin, Wahoo, Coros?

Any device that gives you a FIT, GPX or TCX. Garmin Connect, Wahoo, Coros and Suunto all export one, and the guides show where the button is.
