• When you sign up for a tour that uses Ride with GPS maps and navigation, the tour organizer will provide you with an auto-approval link you can use to sync the tour event to your account and unlock free navigation.

You can download your Ride with GPS tour routes for use offline to save your phone battery and/or avoid using data while riding. To download maps for use offline, tap the Download button in the bottom left corner of the route screen. It may take a few minutes to download. This works best when connected to a wifi network. Once your download is complete, you will have full access to that route and map even when you are not connected to a cellular network or wifi.
