6signals: the motorcycle group ride app with six things to say
A motorcycle group-riding app puts every rider on one live map and replaces typing with six large, gloved-thumb signals.
- For
- Motorcycle groups riding together
- Worth noticing
- The six-character join code tolerates commonly misheard 0/O and 1/I/L.
Field notes
The proposed workflow starts with a rider naming a trip and reading a six-character code aloud at a fuel stop; joining riders inherit the shared route and current group map. The interface reserves large controls for four logistics messages plus OK and SOS, with the latter requiring a press and hold. The page also describes route caching, off-route recovery, and a five-minute coloured beacon, while noting that SOS alerts the group rather than emergency services.
