Abstract: A computer-based method is provided for monitoring bicycle range. The method includes retrieving powered bicycle range data and defining a remaining powered bicycle range at least partially based on the powered bicycle range data. The method then determines or acquires distance to destination data and defines a remaining distance to a destination at least partially based on the distance to destination data. The method then compares the powered bicycle range data or the remaining powered bicycle range to the distance to destination data or the remaining distance to the destination and generates a visualization comparing the powered bicycle range data to the distance to destination data. Also provided is a system for implementing the methods described.
