ITRS is the definitive solution to rate with international standard bike trails. I use it for bike parks and natural bike trails and I find it really helpful to have a clear and objective solution in defining trail difficulty. I'm really satisfied with the course I attended and I think this project can have many more applications in the future.

I really like how the ITRS system allows for an in-depth analysis of the trail, using a variety of metrics to build out a picture of the route. The field data combined with the app allows me to make in-depth and knowledgeable assessments that are scientific in value to the client and remove ambiguity and personal preference from professional trail rating.
ITRS has multiple uses for professional trail builders, as an assessment tool for existing trail or a proof of fulfilment for new built trails. ITRS has given me a new ‘toolbox’ that is useful in all aspects of my professional work.

The ITRS is a quantum leap in the world of mountain biking!
The International Trail Rating System (ITRS) is the first global system for evaluating mountain bike trails, destined to revolutionize the experience of mountain bike enthusiasts.
Designed to ensure greater safety, clarity and fun, the ITRS offers a universal and easily understandable classification, ideal for riders of all levels, from beginners to experts.
With the ITRS, each trail can be clearly and consistently identified and classified, improving the overall user experience and promoting safety on every trail.

Especially when explaining the interrelationships between the four components of the ITRS assessment, it becomes clear how important it is to identify these components separately in the assessment. As soon as you see a chart like this, you know exactly what you're getting into. ITRS is a huge added value for everyone!

Looking for a comprehensive and data-based trail rating system, I attended the ITRS Course and found what I was looking for.
As the most comprehensive rating system, ITRS adds huge value to not only safety of riding experience but businesses and providers. By using ITRS as the only rating system for our company, our guests find it easier to identify their level and we can provide a more complete and professional approach of defining our trips overall riding features.

Trail rating is a subjective and problematic issue, maybe the worst one to deal with. As trail advocate, long term Trailforks administrator and ambassador, I can certainly say that this is one of the biggest issues, if not the biggest one, when talking with riders, riding destinations managers and land managers. ITRS truly helps to rate trails consistently and accurately leaving all “if”, “I believe”, “I think” and other subjective situations that impede a proper objective evaluation based on numbers, degrees and facts. Really looking forward to seeing this system implemented everywhere as soon as possible.

The ITRS system allows us to provide objective and instant information through the use of colors! This way, bikers can choose the trail best suited to their skills, ensuring more safety and fun.
In Italy, we were the first to embrace this project, and we believe it can become a key reference for the MTB world.

Talking about the CTR training Marcos said: "I want to thank you for this week that has been unforgettable for me. Bringing together a group of high-level professionals, great bike lovers and good people, says a lot about ITRS and its creators. I go home feeling part of this "mission" that will make our sport bigger and better. I hope I can see you all again someday. I'll see you on the trails!"

With the ITRS app and after only two days of training the other participants achieved the same level of trail rating confidence that took me 2-3 years to develop.
