David wants a quality trip, but worries about planning and organizing, and he likes social, taking growth as a motivation.

User journey map
According to persona, a user journey map was created. I imagined the whole process he uses this app, from planning to the end, developing all opportunities possible.

Taking the user journey map as a reference, I designed these features that he needs during family cycling trip:
Community, Plan& checklist, Reward mechanism, Air monitor, Exercise monitor, Family monitor.

As a result, I designed a home page that includes 4 main function pages:
Community, Planning, Cycling, Profile

I chose green as the main color because of the nature theme and its vitality, using beige and light grey as secondary colors.
