Quotes of the week

Hear from some of the most impactful users to drive changes

Trailforks used to be a very useful platform, but now, they hide most of the features behind a paywall. You still get basic maps and information, but the free version is useless for researching trails.

For the price of the subscription, Trailforks needs to have a watch app. It’s ridiculous the 'premiere' MTB app doesn’t have a watch app where you can at least mirror the map and data as you record a ride.

I’ve used this app for years and it worked well. For the past week all of the maps say 'maintenance in progress.' There’s no way to see trails or data. I’ve emailed support twice with no response. Not worth an annual subscription if this is what you get.
