How to Set It Up

You'll need this address (it's the same for every app). Then follow the step-by-step instructions below for your AI platform.

Server address https://www.bestbikesplit.com/mcp

Claude Desktop

  1. Click your name (lower left), then SettingsConnectors.
  2. Click Add custom connector.
  3. Name it Best Bike Split and paste in the address above.
  4. Click Connect, then sign in with your Best Bike Split account.
  5. Review the permissions and click Approve.
  6. Ask: “What race plans do I have in Best Bike Split?”

Requires a Pro, Max, Team or Enterprise Claude plan. You only sign in once.

Claude Web & Mobile

  1. At claude.ai, open SettingsConnectors.
  2. Click Add custom connector.
  3. Name it Best Bike Split and paste in the address above.
  4. Sign in and approve.

Add it once and it works in your browser and the Claude mobile app on the same account.

ChatGPT

ChatGPT hides custom connectors behind a Developer mode setting, so this takes a few more steps.

  1. SettingsSecurity and login → switch on Developer mode.
  2. Go to chatgpt.com/plugins and click +.
  3. Name it Best Bike Split and paste in the address above.
  4. Choose OAuth, then sign in and approve.
  5. Switch the connector on in your chat.

Web only (not the mobile apps). Works on Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Education accounts. On Business and above, an administrator has to allow custom connectors first. ChatGPT asks you to confirm each change individually. If you don't see Developer mode, check Settings → Apps → Advanced settings.

Other AI Apps

Works with any app that supports remote MCP servers with OAuth sign-in, including Claude Code. Point it at the address above and choose OAuth.

Apps that use a config file take an entry like this:

{
	"mcpServers": {
		"best-bike-split": {
			"type": "http",
			"url": "https://www.bestbikesplit.com/mcp"
		}
	}
}

No API key to copy, and no password stored in the app.

Example Prompts for Your Assistant

Once you're connected, just talk to your assistant the way you would a coach. Here are a few examples to get you started.

Racing

“Find the Galveston 70.3 course and create a race plan on my time trial bike.”

“Summarize the pacing strategy for my next race.”

“Compare a plan at 185 watts against one at 168. What does backing off cost me?”

Training

“Build a 2x20 threshold workout with a 15 minute warm up ramp.”

“Put that on my TrainingPeaks calendar for Saturday.”

“Swap Sunday's session for an easy recovery spin instead.”

FAQs & Troubleshooting

Having trouble with the AI app connection? Below are answers to the questions we hear most often, along with quick fixes for common issues. If you don't see the answer to your question below or you still need help, please submit a request.

Check the address was pasted exactly, with nothing missing from the end. Then remove the connector and add it again, which clears a half-finished set up.

If your browser is signed in to a different Best Bike Split account, sign out of that first so you approve the right one.

Creating plans and workouts, scheduling them and sending them to your devices are Premium features. If you have just upgraded, remove the connector and add it again so the new permissions are picked up.

Those connections live in your Best Bike Split account. Connect them under "More > Integrations" in the app, or from your account settings on the website.

You can also ask: "Which of my connections need to be reconnected?"

Wahoo limits how many requests any app can make in a period, and pauses new ones for a while — often around twenty minutes. Nothing is wrong and you don't need to reconnect. Ask the assistant to check your connection health and it will tell you when Wahoo will accept requests again.

Sending the same workout to the same date again replaces the earlier copy. Sending a different one adds it alongside, which is usually what you want for a genuine double day.

To swap a session instead, just say so: "Replace whatever is on Sunday with this recovery spin." Best Bike Split only removes entries it created, so your own workouts are never touched.

Yes. You sign in on a Best Bike Split page in your own browser, so the AI app never sees your password. You approve the permissions before anything connects, and the assistant only reaches your own data. Creating and sending requires a Premium account — every other account tier can only read. You can remove the connector in your AI app's settings at any time, and access ends immediately.

Data shared through the connection is covered by our Privacy Policy. Anything the assistant reads also becomes part of that conversation in the AI app, under that provider's terms.

Remove the Best Bike Split connector in your AI app's settings. Access ends immediately. Anything already created in your account, or already sent to your devices, stays where it is.
