Washington DC → Gettysburg · five ways

Two motorcycles leaning through a wooded curve

Every map on your phone is built around arrival.

Get there, quickly, with the fewest surprises. That’s the right goal for a commute and the wrong one for a Saturday.

Ask Twisty for the same two towns five different ways and you get five genuinely different rides, not one route with five labels. Twelve minutes more, or a whole day. You decide how much of it is riding.

What it does

Plan it. Find the roads.
Ride it. Take it anywhere.

Everything in the app, in the order a ride happens.

Plan it

Simple when you want simple, deep when you don’t.

  • Tap the map

    Point by point, when you know exactly where you want to go.

  • Search a town

    A place, a diner, a brewery at the far end. It knows what’s near you.

  • Loop from here

    No destination needed. A loop from wherever you’re standing.

  • Roll the dice

    One tap, a real surprise. Roll again until you see the one you want.

  • Just ask

    “Twisty roads toward the mountains, a diner an hour out, back by six.”

    Premium
  • Seven riding styles

    Fastest, Twisty, Sweepers, Max Twisty, Backcountry, Dirt Explorer, Grand Tour. Same two towns, genuinely different rides.

    Five in Premium
  • Rockville → Frederick

    Change one piece. Everything else stays put.

    Tap the line between two pins and that stretch is yours alone: roll it again, make it longer, give it its own riding style. Every other mile comes back exactly as it was.

    Adding a point reshapes a ride too, and that part is free. Here, one point mid-route sends the ride the other side of the ridge: twelve minutes more, seventy percent different roads.

Find the roads

Any road by name, and the ones every rider has heard of.

  • Any road by name

    Search a road and the whole road lights up. Start ride takes it to the far end. Too far away? Plan the way there.

  • All of it, or a stretch

    Pins A and B mark its ends. Ride from A or from B, or move one and ride just the stretch between them.

  • Add a road onto your ride

    Already planned one? Continue on this road rides it after your finish and keeps the rest exactly as it was, however far the road is from your finish.

  • Famous roads

    The best-known riding roads, state by state, on one map. Tap the ones you want and Let’s Ride plans the ride through them.

    Premium

Ride it

Twisty rides with you, along the ride you planned. No traffic, no lane guidance: it rides your ride.

  • Turn by turn

    Spoken out loud, following the exact line you drew. No second app to open, no route quietly straightened on the way.

    Premium · beta
  • Twisty on CarPlay

    The ride you planned on the car’s screen, turn by turn and spoken out loud, and you can start a saved ride from the car. On the free plan the car shows the map following you.

    iPhone · Premium
  • Just ride

    No route at all. The same heading-up map, so you can see the road ahead and wander. Free.

  • Road closed

    Off route because the road is shut? Tap Road closed and Twisty finds a way around it.

    Premium

Take it anywhere

Bring a ride in, send one out. Both free. Navigating an imported ride is Premium.

  • Bring a ride in

    Open a .gpx file from Files, Mail or another app and choose Twisty, or tap Import a GPX file in My rides. It rides exactly as it came in. Navigate it and you follow the blue line, no turn calls.

    Premium to navigate
  • Send it out as GPX

    The route transfers corner for corner to BMW Motorrad, OsmAnd, Scenic, Garmin and most riding apps.

  • Google Maps or Apple Maps

    Send the ride to Google Maps, or Apple Maps on iPhone. Being straight with you: they re-route between the pins their own fast way, so some curvy bits get straightened. GPX rides exactly.

You already know the road. You just haven’t found it yet.

What Twisty isn’t

Not your everyday navigator.
Twisty navigates now, but only ever along the ride you planned with it. There is no “take me to the nearest pharmacy”, no traffic, no lane guidance. For getting to work on Tuesday, the app already on your home screen is better and always will be.
Not a replacement. A supplement.
It sits alongside the tools you have. That’s the feature: Twisty never has to be mediocre at ten things to be good at one.
Not a speed app.
Speed data stays private by default and is stripped from anything you share. We’re not building a leaderboard for public roads.

Hi, I’m Vuk

“I already knew every turn on those roads. On a motorcycle they felt like somewhere else.”

I was nine the first time I sat on a motorcycle: my grandfather’s Tomos, on the dirt road by the house. After that I took it out whenever I thought I could get away with it. At twelve it was my uncle’s bigger bike, in the mountains of Serbia, and for years the best part of every summer was getting on it and just going. Gas, dirt, mountains.

Much later I went looking for an app that would let me think of a ride and then go and ride it: fast, twisty, or just poking around the backroads near home. I tried all of them. Not one of them did that. So I made Twisty.

These days I’m a senior cyber security engineer, and I ride Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia and Pennsylvania. Twisty is built simple on purpose, and I’m not finished with it: I want it to become the place riders plan and keep their rides, and before long, plan them together.

Two wheels or four. I built it for both. Write in and it reaches me.
