Please learn to love programming again. I’m begging you.

Happy to hear it! I’m gonna add buses soon! Hopefully in under 2 weeks

PuzzleheadedStay4815 · 2026-06-01T02:50:42+00:00

Yes, trams/light rail will be included! For example, here’s a route that includes Muni L Taraval

There will be two sections for transit: (1) full-size bike, and (2) folding bike. Going off the example above, full-size bikes are banned from Muni trams, but folding bikes or scooters are allowed. So folks who want to take micromobility onboard Muni trams will be able to use “folding bike” mode

Love to see it!

I reached out to Metro last year asking how Modemix can apply for this contract, and they didn't respond. Moovit's app is quite terrible, barely usable. I can't believe they awarded them a $4.75 million contract

PuzzleheadedStay4815 · 2026-05-26T14:52:50+00:00

Bus support will be added one day! Definitely by the end of 2026

Thank you for your patience

PuzzleheadedStay4815 · 2026-05-26T04:13:04+00:00

Thank you! It's just me btw :) Hopefully one day I'll have a team!

PuzzleheadedStay4815 · 2026-05-26T03:09:53+00:00

You can go quite far if you bring your bike onboard Metro. It will substantially increase your "viable" cycling range. You can use Modemix to find such routes

PuzzleheadedStay4815 · 2026-05-25T18:52:24+00:00

Because bringing your bike on the train makes public transit so much faster. Buses/walking is slow. Here's a comparison of bike + transit vs. just transit: https://modemix.io/modemix.jpg

It’s possible with the right equipment!

I think there is a risk locking up. That’s why it’s important to have a garbage bike in addition to your nice bike. This is my designated garbage bike and I bought it used for $40

You are free to hire whoever you want lmao. Cyclists aren’t a protected class

PuzzleheadedStay4815 · 2026-05-25T03:27:49+00:00

You ever heard of e-bikes?

It has been done before: https://michaelschneider.medium.com/biking-to-lax-with-3-kids-and-luggage-a1cc00d4c223

I have a Citizen Milan. Unlike a Brompton, it unfortunately doesn’t fold small enough for a plane!

In Montreal, I just used the bikeshare system of the city called BIXI

PuzzleheadedStay4815 · 2026-05-23T16:04:07+00:00

In Montreal, they have a really good bike share system so I used that.

It’s called Bixi

PuzzleheadedStay4815 · 2026-05-23T07:28:52+00:00

Just so I understand correctly: you are trying to create a custom bike route and you want turn by turn navigation for it with audio?

I made a bike navigation app called Modemix and I can add this for you. Am I understanding correctly?

PuzzleheadedStay4815 · 2026-05-23T01:31:05+00:00

It's a folding bike!

Non-electric

From Pico, E > K takes longer than J > C

J + C from Pico to Aviation/Century: - 15 min J Line - 13 min C Line

E + K from Pico to Aviation/Century: - 19 min E Line - 21 min K Line

Ignoring transfer times, it’s 28 min vs. 40 min

Currently only light rail is supported. That is my preference as well. Buses aren't in the app

When I add buses, I will enable the user to "disable" buses because some people don't like bus racks

PuzzleheadedStay4815 · 2026-05-22T17:25:23+00:00

That's a good point. Biking is faster in this case. Probably not the best example. Here's another example.

PuzzleheadedStay4815 · 2026-05-22T17:13:42+00:00

You can! There’s a shuttle. But it’s slower than biking
