I've been working on a little web project for a couple months now, just bit by bit, and I wanted to share it here first for some of the local enthusiasts, and maybe get a bit of input from the crowd here that would use it, on how it could be better.
The name of my site is Colorado Dirt. It is dedicated to dirt trails for whatever type of vehicle; 4x4, motorcycle, 4-wheeler, whatever. Think of it as traildamage.com, but not closed community, and not specifically for 4x4 vehicles. I envision this being a community supported information center for Colorado motorized vehicle dirt trails, and their current conditions. I don't really see it being a club of any sort (no forums for now), but maybe one day I can provide tools for ride planning among members or something. For now, I just want it to be a resource for people who don't know where to go (like me!). I have integrated everything into Google maps, and have added some features that I haven't seen used much on other sites of this kind, like being able to see the track on the map right on the site, and for users to upload their tracks from their rides.
Please keep in mind that I am only a developer. I don't design things worth shit. Everything in the site is under development, and I honestly don't like the overall look of it, but that will change one day. For now, I'm just trying to get the basics of the functionality down. Some of the functionality does not work, and none of the tools have been idiot proofed yet.
Check it out if you'd like. Any input is awesome. If you want to get deeper and maybe add a few trails, let me know and I can make an account for you.
