WHAT MAPS ARE USED?
The Bike Citizens app (former BikeCityGuide) is a navigation app based on the great OpenStreetMap (OSM), the "Wikipedia of maps". We invite everybody to take a look at wiki.openstreetmap.org in order to learn more about OSM, how it works and how you can contribute. The insider tours were created by local bike messengers, the sights descriptions are from Wikipedia.

Amazing app!
Heaps better than Google maps for riding a bike
Useful, shows paths many others don't.
Finally a good route planner for bicycles. Also I like the campaigns and the purpose.
Developer responded quickly when I complained about the lack of a free trial, but it seems I hadn't looked closely enough! If you ride a lot you can get the maps free - I guess because you contribute more data. Excellent layout and interface and magazine articles are excellent.
Simply the best getting around bicycle app. Accurate and not confusing. They have recently released a ton of new maps!! The only thing i would like to see is the ability to pin places.
