Combine beacon functionality with something similar to "flybys" in real time for group activities. A ride leader can set the route, and then add athletes via link, QR code, etc. Once joined up with the leader, you begin the group ride and can see both the route on the map and location of riders in your group. Add functionality to "stop the bus" and signal the leader that you have a mechanical or have fallen behind.

It would be great if when you are using a predefined route, that route would show up on the screen for your Beacon viewers. That way, they can easily see if you've deviated from the route and they can have a sense of what you're planning to do from the outset.

Second this idea.

AllTrails does this, and it’s very helpful as an early heads-up that something may have gone wrong.

This would be a very cool feature, indeed!

I'd just add that the "stop the bus" feature could include a "max distance" -- whenever a rider gets farther then the limit from the leader, send an alert so the leader decide if she calls a stop-the-bus.
