Summary: 

 Our solution is an iPhone application which allows cyclers across the globe to record their daily commutes as "bike routes."  These routes are displayed to the user in real time as a series of plotted points on a "street view" map.  The data points collected by the user are stored as GPS coordinates which are uploaded and stored to a cloud server.  The stored data, can then be accessed by any cycler in the United States according to zipcode, and any cyclers across the global can also access their data.  Multiple bike routes can be overlayed multiple on the user's iPhone.

Why we are working on this problem: 

 To increase cycling safety and awareness in the community.  To make local cycling data available to individual users, cycling groups, and local municipalities. 

What we accomplished during the event: 

Team Awesomefat created a functioning iPhone app that allows a user to: create a new bike route, choose a route from a database of stored user routes, and access and analyze other cyclists bike routes in the local community.

Progress made since the event: 

N/A -all progress on theis solution was accomplished during the RHok 24-hour Hackathon.

Traction: 

-our application has not yet been published/distributed to the app store for public use.

Next steps: 

 Streamline and optimize our code and submit to the app.
