the
solution
a smart cycling hub.
We’re a dynamic platform curated by cyclists, for cyclists. Our goal is to make it easy to discover high-quality, reliable, and bike-friendly businesses, services, and professionals across the Algarve, Portugal.
No more guesswork, outdated listings, or missing details — just accurate, up-to-date information about the cycling spots, services, and people you care about.
​
Whether you are looking for coffee shops, bike mechanics, rentals, coaching, events, or guided tours, Velopod brings together the best options in one place!
How
it Works
Features
community
enriched PODs
Get familiar with PODs, which are curated groups of similar businesses, services, and professionals (like categories, really).
​
Being constantly enriched by our cycling community and pod leaders, they grow over time, allowing for exciting discoveries as new businesses emerge and others become favourites.​
curated
content
​All of our listings have been hand-picked by our team, and the information has been verified and validated. We also offer a report feature, in case a business changes their information.
As of now you can find Coffee Shops, Bike Tours, Bike Rentals, Races & Events. New pods will be added as we continue the curation process.​
FO.IA

Meet FO.IA, your smart cycling assistant. She's a force within Velopod, trained to help cyclists during their rides.
​
Inspired by the Fóia Mountain (the highest point of the Algarve), she has a clear view of the region and is ready to recommend you the best coffee stops, connect to local cycling groups and even give instructions on how to repair a flat tire.

and bold
Every element of the Velopod app will be designed specifically for cyclists in motion—no confusing icons, excessive clicking, or pointless visual distractions.
We want the SEB interface to present you the information efficiently and easily (like quickly finding that perfect gear ratio when climbing).
