	What's the best app for tracking your MTB rides? I've been looking at the MTB Project app. which seems pretty good. Are there any others you use?

	They're all pretty much free, to your cell phone give them a download and a try. One might be better for use than another. Strava is the performance tracker ranker app that most people use not so much a tool for finding trails. I prefer Trail forks for finding trails (but not everything is listed) Never used MTB Project.. Listed trails are only as good as the users that Load + upload + update to it.

	Strava seems to be the go to app for most, it works great and is free.

Not to sound argumentative, but I think it harsh to say "never use MTB Project". I agree I wouldn't use it for tracking rides, but the more users that use MTB Project the better it will be. I've used it for finding trails in areas I was unfamiliar with, especially while traveling and it can be a great resource. If you do use it and find the reviews of trails are how you experienced the trail, you can add your own review. Apps like that one count on people to help out to make them useful. That said, I use Strava to track my rides.

	In Europe Wikiloc is very popular, but I have noticed that here is not really used.

	Not to sound argumentative, but he said he has never used Mtb Project. It wasn't a critical review. That said, I use Garmin Connect to track my rides.

	I dig trailforks myself. And, I'm a bit of a strava whore (recorded on a Garmin).
