Deployed my first iOS app today. Excited to build the best pro cycling fan experience you’ve never even imagined. Give Radial a try if you want to keep up with cycling!

If you want the sweet juice of bike racing, Radial is now live on the iOS App Store! Download it here, and please be in touch to let us know how to make it better. We have a lot more planned 😎. This is really just the beginning apps.apple.com/us/app/radia...

I think people underestimate how sick it is to be part of a team. And how important teamwork is in cycling. Imagine being the person who built the engine on Apollo 11. Nobody is asking them whether they are mad they didn’t get to go to the moon.

Pray for me as I ship features straight to prod during an event while tens of thousands have the app open 😅 YEEHAW

Just deployed a new update to @radial.racing to improve the timing point names so they’re readable on the profile. Still massaging this ITT view so bare with us

There will be no iOS lock screen view of today’s ITT, but I deployed a new update this morning to make following time trials even better. Go favorite your riders and follow along, the race is live!

lol I hope the bug is fixed for good. Wrote a new test for it yesterday, but it’s a complicated series of events that led to the notification death loop. We will find out today!🤞

One of my goals with Radial is to make a place for the cycling conversation to happen, where we can find each other and the fantastic content and detailed analysis from people and organizations across the web. There is much more to do there. The cycling chatter feeds are only the beginning.

🤔Might start posting again here as well, Radial Cycling by @kris.to seems a nice platform to follow cycling. 📊Here for stats, once again.

Look, we told you we would send notifications, and we did that. What's the issue?!

We just had an infrastructure blip that sent repeated notifications about the race start. Consider yourselves ALERTED! Should be resolved now and we are deploying a permanent fix. Bear with us as we scale up to many new users!

Hello friends! We are making a push to get more cycling fans onto Radial (and Bluesky) during the Tour, partially by setting up an Instagram account to reach them where they are. It would be very helpful if you could give us a follow! www.instagram.com/radialprocyc...

FYI @radial.racing is bugging today unfortunately. I’ve been waiting on a review from Apple to release a big update for a few days which would have resolved this. Hoping to have it fixed, along with some new features, by tomorrows stage! Stay tuned.

So cool seeing this come up on my lock screen 30 minutes to start. This new version has been sitting in Apple’s review queue for 4 days now. Fingers crossed they let me release it before tomorrows final stage! @radial.racing

A little update: I fixed the profile gradient selector in @radial.racing today, so gradients are now correctly rendered with the scrubber. Just a little quality of life fix for now. Much more important update coming soon!

Ok I may have shipped this today in a frantic rush to try and get live stats running in time for the Giro stage. Looks like it needs a bit more help. Good news is I have a bit of time until the next TT

If you update @radial.racing, I just added time trial live stats just in time for the finish of today’s Giro stage. Favorite riders to see them at the top. Will be improving this view soon, but it’s a start!

The fix is deployed! Quit and restart the app, then wait ~20s for it to detect the new update. You should see a banner to update at the top. Click it and it should resolve!

If you’re in Cycling Media, I want to talk to you. My goal with Radial is to build a platform that helps people follow the sport. This means surfacing the incredible journalism and content that’s already out there. 1/

But that is just the beginning. I want to make it much easier for users to follow your work, and see when your preview or recap is ready. I have a lot of ideas here, but I also want your input on how I can help you. /6

You keep your readership, I help more people become fans and find you. That’s the goal. If any of this is interesting — to push back on, dig in to, or just chat about — DMs are open. Replies welcome. Much love, @radial.racing

Every healthy sport has a place where rivals cooperate to make the sport better for fans. Cycling doesn’t. I’d like Radial to be the first step towards that. 4/

Concretely, if you write, podcast, or broadcast about cycling, I want your work on Radial so I can help more people find you. Not just existing fans, but new fans. Posts from cycling Bluesky already surface in the app. Posts can link out to your site, your show, your channel. 5/

I want to send people to your work, not compete with it. Radial isn’t a publisher, and it never will be. It’s a daily home for cycling fans. A place for them to discover your articles, previews, podcasts, videos, etc. You are the backbone of this sport, and supporting you is important to me. 2/

Cycling is fragmented. Races, teams, broadcasters, media, etc all competing for a relatively small pie. I do not want a slice of that pie. I want to bake a much larger pie 🥧 3/

better every day

Today we're adding improved live stats for many races showing more complete group information so you can always find your favorite riders! Go see what's happening in @lavueltafem.bsky.social !

Is there any progress in ATProto on how to brand accounts? Are we calling them Atmosphere accounts? Does Bluesky have an official stance on this? Will they eventually switch to OAuth and have them branded similarly? I call them Bluesky accounts in my app now, but that feels wrong.
