Ride Analysis

F1 Sky Sports-style post-ride debrief. Not a dashboard — a race analyst that speaks only in observed data.

Five Layers of Insight

The debrief uses progressive disclosure — headline first, deep data on demand.

1. Headline Card

Every ride gets a single, compelling headline:

"Fastest Tai Po loop. 1:12 faster than April 1st."

Bold, factual, instantly tells you what happened. No fluff.

2. Performance Insights

Top 3 insights shown immediately. Expand for more. Categories include:

CategoryExample
Pacing”Negative split — second half 14s faster”
Power”Avg power up 8W vs. last attempt”
HR Drift”Heart rate drifted +12 bpm in final 10km at same power”
Climbing”2:08 faster on the climb segment”
Speed”8 seconds faster than last week”
Historical”3rd fastest time on this route”

Each insight shows improvement or regression with +/− delta indicators. Color-coded by category.

3. Interactive Speed Chart

Drag across the speed-over-distance chart to trace your ride in real-time.

  • Y-axis: Speed (km/h)
  • X-axis: Distance (km)
  • Overlay: Average speed reference line (dashed), elevation profile fill (background)
  • Scrubber: Vertical line with data point — “35.2 km/h at 4.8 km”
  • Map sync: Tap any point to highlight the corresponding location on the ride map

Professional-grade analysis, built into the app you already ride with.

4. Deep Dive Sections

Collapsed by default. Expand what you care about:

Segments

  • All completed Strava segments with time and PR badges
  • Segment type, distance, and gradient at a glance
  • Time delta vs. personal best — negative means faster

Pacing Splits

  • Split-by-split breakdown at 5km intervals
  • Reveals fade, negative-split, or steady-state patterns
  • Comparison to previous interval pace

Heart Rate Zones

  • Time distribution across 5 zones (Z1 through Anaerobic)
  • Estimated max HR with confidence indicator
  • Visual breakdown of effort allocation

5. AI Narrative

One tap generates a 60-second spoken debrief in sports commentator voice.

  • Plays through AirPods during cooldown
  • Factual, never coaching: “New PR. 4:17.” not “Great job!”
  • Generated on-demand — doesn’t block the debrief UI
  • Retry available if generation fails

Adaptive Display

The debrief adapts to your data:

  • No power meter? Power sections hidden automatically
  • No heart rate? HR zone analysis replaced with effort estimation from speed data
  • Short ride? Simplified view with fewer sections
  • Repeat route? Historical comparisons front and center
