Built a tiny tool to share e-bike rides & trails — no signups, just a link

Hey folks,
When I got into e-biking last year, I quickly found myself planning rides from all over — YouTube channels, Strava heatmaps, Komoot suggestions — and making my own GPX routes to explore.

The problem?
Sharing those routes with friends was a pain.
They’d need to sign up for apps, download software, or dig through features they didn’t care about… just to see where we were going.

So I built something small and simple for my own rides: TrailDrop 🚴‍♂️

It’s been handy for planning group rides — I’ve used it to send routes to people who don’t even own a GPS device but still want to preview the trail before deciding to join.

If you use a Garmin, Wahoo, or other GPS for your e-bike rides, I’d love to know:

Here’s the link if you want to test it with one of your GPX files: https://traildrop.app/

(Mods: Not selling anything — just sharing a tool I made for my own rides and looking for feedback from fellow e-bikers.)
