Pre-season maintenance has begun. Shocks are out to Hygear getting the annual rebuild . With the skid having 10k miles im in the process of changing all the bushing and bearings. After that it’s rollers , jack shaft and driveshaft bearings.

Its never to early to start. Season will be here before you know it. Get your rigs to the shops before they get super busy .

🚨 A PERSONAL NOTE ON GPS TRAILMASTERS + TRAILINTEL 🚨

When we first started TrailIntel, we weren’t trying to build just another app.

We believed something simple but important:

👉 Mapping accuracy had to come first
👉 What riders see on screen had to be simple, fast, and reliable
👉 And the experience had to connect riders, clubs, businesses, and even first responders into one system

Because at the end of the day this isn’t just technology. It’s how people experience the outdoors.

That’s why this next step means so much to me personally.

GPS Trailmasters is now powered by TrailIntel.

For over 18 years, GPS Trailmasters has built one of the most trusted trail datasets in the industry. That doesn’t change.

What does change is how that experience is delivered.

We’re bringing that same trusted data into:

✅ A modern mobile app
✅ Seamless Garmin integration
✅ Real-time trail data and updates
✅ Expanded coverage across regions
✅ Continued local support you already know

And I want to be clear about something…

You’re not losing anything. You’re gaining a lot.

Nothing new to learn.
Same great trails.
Better usability.
One simple app.

For riders, this means better planning, safer rides, and more confidence when you’re out there.

For clubs, this means better tools to manage, grow, and showcase your trail systems.

For communities and businesses, this means more visibility and more opportunity driven by outdoor tourism.

We’re making a long-term investment in this space because we believe in it and in all of you who make it what it is.

This is just the beginning.

OUTSMART THE OUTDOORS, TOGETHER.

Sincerely,
Brian Gavin
