What does the RideWindow ride score measure?

It is a 0–100 score for one hour at one place, built from temperature, rain, wind, visibility, road grip and daylight. Near-freezing temperatures after rain, visibility under 200 m and gusts over 90 km/h force it to 0 (No-Go), and reduced grip caps it. It is a weather opinion, not a safety guarantee.

Why the weather matters on Susten Pass

Susten Pass: a wide, well-built road with tunnels and glacier views between Innertkirchen and Wassen. It reaches its high point in a short tunnel below the Stein Glacier.

The score is for the summit (2,224 m), usually the coldest and most exposed point of the ride; the valleys on either side are often warmer and drier. The score is weather only: it does not know whether the road is open. This road closes in winter, so check its status before you set off.

The score is not a comfort number. It prices the things that actually stop a ride: freezing rain with wet roads, visibility under 0.2 km, and gusts over 90 km/h all veto the hour outright, and the grip estimate caps a greasy-road hour even when the rest reads as a recommendation.
