CLT MTB App

Hi everyone. I wanted an iOS app to alert myself of Charlotte trail status changes so I created one. It's fairly basic for now but you can select which trails you want to be alerted for. There's an events screen that shows upcoming races and other happenings. On each trail screen there is a (very basic for now) map of the area with nearby food, beer, and bike shops. It's free and available on the App Store for y'all to check out. I'll attempt to attach a link here but not sure if the forum allows that. If not just search for "CLT MTB" in the Apple App Store. There's a feedback link in the app if you have any. Thanks! (You need to Login or Register to view media files and links)

Very cool, thanks for that. If I can make a suggestion, it would be awesome if you change the color of the pins in the map view to reflect the status. When you look at it at first glance it makes it look like they're all open. Also, it seems like your mileages are all short except for Sherman. 
Otherwise, great job!

Pretty cool! I’ll find it useful. I don’t see Brown Mill listed?

Interesting! Like it. Didnt see Salisbury Community MTB Park either but this is a great start. Thanks for doing this.

Thanks for the feedback y'all! I added Brown Mill but didn't see a Salisbury Community Park trail listed here.

I just wanted to follow-up here for anyone that might stumble upon this thread. I didn't do quite enough due diligence when picking the "CLT MTB" name since a company already exists in the area with that name. So I've renamed the app to "Ride CLT". It's available on the Apple App Store as such, and can be found via (You need to Login or Register to view media files and links)

Kudos to you for having any idea and executing on it. Most would state the idea and b***h no one else has built it. Thank you and nice job.
  

I'm glad that this is an environment where you feel free to fail.

You need to pitch this to the CLT-MTB Facebook group.

Would it be difficult to implement that users can label trails as favorites and have them show up first in their trail list?
