Enter your daily race plan

The planner is the heart of the rider app. For each day you tell Kuruvu when you expect to reach each support station, where you'll sleep, and which stops you'll skip — and every change saves itself, so your crews and the race office can plan around you.

Reading the plan

Rider app planner showing Today's stations — Allendale, Centocow, Ntsikeni — each with arrival-window and stop controls

Open the app and you land on the planner. It opens on Today and lists every support station ahead of you, in order, grouped by day.

Each station is a card showing its name and whether it's MANDATORY or OPTIONAL. The Synced badge at the top confirms your plan is saved.

Set your arrival windows

For each station, tap the time of day you expect to arrive:

Windows are estimates, not commitments. Set your best guess and adjust as your race unfolds.

Choose where you sleep

On each station card, the Sleep control marks it as where you'll rest for the night. Tap Sleep on the station you're aiming to sleep at — it highlights to show it's your sleep stop for that day.

Skip the stops you won't use

Optional stations show a Skip control. Tap it to tell Kuruvu you'll ride straight through without stopping:

Your plan saves itself

There's no separate save or confirm step. Every choice — an arrival window, a sleep stop, a skip — is saved the moment you make it. The Synced badge at the top of the planner is your confirmation that the race office and your crews have the current picture.

Made a change with no signal? It's stored on your phone and syncs automatically the moment you reconnect.

Plan the days ahead

Below today, the planner continues with Tomorrow and every following day, each with its own stations. Scroll down to set arrival windows, sleep stops, and skips for the whole race in advance.

As you ride and reach each station, the planner keeps the picture current — completed stops drop away and the next station ahead becomes your focus.

Build or change your plan while you have signal — at home or the start village. Edits made offline are saved on your phone and sync automatically the moment you reconnect.
