In just one year, a community of 12,000 unique users have created a log of 50,000 routes, covering over a million miles. The Sanoodi community explore outdoor routes and activities, meet people like them and share what they’re doing online.

Now, with the development of a new website and a unique range of integrated mobile devices, the Sanoodi community is set to grow and strike out in lots of different directions.

Launched on the 2nd April 2008, the new Sanoodi site is focused on building and developing the community by giving users the ability to create, join and manage their own groups, events and challenges. Users can now comment on routes and content, and yet have greater control over their own privacy.

Sanoodi users have been consulted as the new site has been developed so the new features meet their exacting requirements. Paul Sandham of Sanoodi said, “We’ve put a lot of thought into how we can add to the enjoyment people get from outdoor activities.”

“We are really excited about the new possibilities for Sanoodi users. You can now meet other people who enjoy the same activities as you and form groups to share adventures or challenge each other. And with the advances in smartphone technology this is just the start.”

Sanoodi’s unique mobile applications mean users can upload their adventures in real time, enabling users and their friends to track their progress as they train, compete or explore. With the rapid growth in GPS equipped smartphones and PDA’s (iSuppli Corp have forecast that by 2011 29.6% of all new mobile phones will have GPS Capability) the usage of these applications is set to skyrocket.

Will Davies uses Sanoodi to track his cycle rides towards his self set challenge of ascending 160,000 metres of vertical climb in a year. The routes he uploads are there for others to try and provide a record of his rides.

Will said “Sanoodi is a fantastic way for me to track my progress and share the rides I’m doing with friends, family and people like me.” With the new features Will can now meet other Sanoodi cyclists, share his images and thoughts with them, enter their events, and challenge others to join his.
