Every trail page has a rating section where wheelers who’ve driven it can post a star rating and a written review.
How to rate
You need to be logged in and (typically) have marked the trail as driven [VERIFY this requirement]. Then on the trail page, click Rate this trail. A small form opens with:
- Five-star rating
- Written review (optional but encouraged)
Submit. Your rating appears immediately in the trail’s rating section, attributed to your username.
What makes a good rating
Honest, specific. The most useful ratings include:
- What conditions you drove in (wet, dry, recent snow, etc.)
- What rig you were in and whether you wished you’d had different gear
- What the trail does well — scenery, technical interest, accessibility
- What it doesn’t — overuse, condition issues, navigation challenges
Avoid: vague praise (“great trail!”) or vague complaints. Other wheelers want to know what to expect.
The star scale
Five stars = exceptional for its category. Three stars = solid, worth doing. One star = avoid unless you have specific reasons. Don’t inflate your ratings — a community of all-five-star reviews helps no one.
Editing or deleting your rating
From your account → Activity tab, find the rating and click to edit or delete. You can also edit from the trail page itself — clicking Rate this trail when you already have a rating shows your existing one for editing.
Reporting bad reviews
If you see a review that’s clearly fake, abusive, or off-topic, click the report link below it. An admin reviews reports and removes content that violates the community guidelines.
