What this is

A visual route study inspired by gravel rides around Bogota and the Sabana. It treats a ride as a small data story: start, effort, terrain, uncertainty, and the shape of a route.

What it demonstrates

Maps are interfaces. They decide what to show, what to hide, what to label, and where the viewer should look first. That makes them a useful playground for product thinking.

Design notes

The route uses a simple line language, a clear highlight, and restrained labels. The goal is to make the path readable before adding any deeper layer of data.

How it connects to product work

Many product screens are really maps: dashboards, funnels, setup flows, permissions, and operational tools. They all ask users to understand where they are and what matters next.

What to look for
Recruiter signal

Shows personal context without fake metrics: Bogotá, cycling, geography, and information design tied back to product thinking.

Useful output

A framework for deciding what a map-like interface should emphasize: path, current position, terrain, risk, and next action.

Next iteration

Add a small route-data demo using GPX-like mock data, elevation labels, and responsive SVG rendering.
