Cycle buddy is an app for cyclists. It is an extra layer of help in case of mechanical issues, or other technical issues with the bike or even health issues that the cyclist might encounter. It gives the cyclist the tools to request help from other users that might be in the area in the event of cycling solo or not being able to contact someone they know. It is particularly valid for solo, audax riders or for cyclists cycling outside their local area or even country. With time as the app grows there will also be a database of shops that users can see in the app. This shops will be able to advertise any offers available to users. When cyclists request help all riders who have that particular cyclist within their preset range will get a notification and will be given the choice to offer help. Once the help is offered its upto the person requesting to accept. Only then will he share his/her exact location. The helper and helpee can then chat on the app. Once the help is complete the chat will disappear. There are no profiles of users viewable or no social network type befriending or following feature.
