An electronic device for providing cycling information of a plurality of bicycles that are riding in a group, the electronic device being associated with a first bicycle of the plurality of bicycles, the electronic device comprising control circuitry operative to:

• detect a plurality of other electronic devices, wherein each electronic device of the detected plurality of other electronic devices is associated with a respective bicycle of the plurality of bicycles;
• determine at least a first riding characteristic of at least one of the first bicycle and a first user that is riding the first bicycle;
• receive in real-time from at least one electronic device of the detected plurality of other electronic devices, at least a second riding characteristic of a second bicycle of the plurality of bicycles that is associated with the at least one electronic device and a second user that is riding the second bicycle;
• provide at least one riding recommendation of the first user based on at least the determined first riding characteristic and the received second riding characteristic;
• determine a current position of the first bicycle that is on a first cycling path;
• in response to the determining the current position, identify at least a second cycling path that is located in the vicinity of the determined current position;
• and
• provide the identified second cycling path to a display of the electronic device that is associated with the first bicycle for display to the first user.
