From a 24hr race I did, tick as many riders as you want and even stranger show up! So if you bumped into someone while out riding you can now stalk them 😆

Been using it for a few months to analyse our MTB orienteering events. Always great to see the different options and routes taken by others.

That's been there ages. Quite interesting.

Noticed this, this morning.
It's quite amusing watching other people bumbling around in your vicinity but I am not sure what the point of it is? I guess you could perhaps 'follow' people who you notice are regulars on local rides, but they'd only show up if they were out at the same time as you.

Would be interesting to see how it coped with an event like a sportive or a large lapped 24hr event. I wonder if there's a max of people you can tick and get traces from?

It can be quite crushing to use it to view a race, particularly when zoomed in and getting to relive the elastic stretching then eventually snapping!

It's been around for a while as a separate beta feature, but now there's a link on everyone's ride (not just your own) to view "flybys". I use it to stalk people on my commute and freak them out by commenting on their ride 😈
