Why a group moto adventure needs more than a group chat
A group ADV ride lives in four places at once: the route in REVER or Butler Maps, the tool kit list in a Google Doc, the fuel range plan in someone’s head, and every decision buried in a group chat. By the time you roll out, half the crew has read none of it, and you find out 60 miles from the next town that two riders packed tire irons while nobody brought a spare tube or the pump.
The Dirt Brief puts the whole brief on one page. Your riding crew opens a link, sees the route on an interactive map, claims the shared tools and spares, votes on the roll-out time, and asks questions in one place, and you can see who has actually read it.
Everything your crew needs on one page
Your route, on an interactive map
Export the GPX route from REVER, Gaia GPS, or Butler Maps and drop it in. The crew sees the full route with fuel stops, camps, and waypoints, not a screenshot.
Tool kit and spares, claimed not duplicated
A shared list where each rider claims what they are bringing. No more three riders packing tire irons and nobody carrying a spare tube, a pump, or the tow strap.
Fuel stops sorted before you roll out
Map the fuel stops and the longest gap between them, so the small-tank bikes know where to top off and nobody runs dry on a remote stretch. Everyone sees the plan without a spreadsheet.
Decisions settled with polls
Roll-out time, which route variant to ride, the pavement bypass or the technical section: put it to a poll and get an answer instead of forty unread messages.
Know who is actually prepared
Engagement tracking shows who has opened the brief. Nudge the two riders who have not before they show up short a spare tube or the right tire tools.
Three steps. That’s it.
- 1
Drop in your GPX from GAIA GPS, onX Offroad, Komoot, or CalTopo — it becomes an interactive route map.
- 2
Add camps, gear, meals, and any polls or questions for the crew.
- 3
Share one link. Everyone views the brief, claims gear, and votes — no accounts, no downloads.
Moto & ADV trip planning, answered
How do I share a REVER or Gaia GPS route with my whole riding group?
Export your route as a GPX file from REVER, Gaia GPS, or Butler Maps and drop it into The Dirt Brief. It becomes an interactive map inside a full trip brief covering the route, fuel stops, tool kit, and camps, that your crew opens with one link. No one needs a route-planning subscription just to see where you are riding.
Do the riders in my crew need to make accounts?
No. You build the brief; every rider opens one link. They can view the route, claim tools and spares, vote on polls, and ask questions without signing up or downloading anything.
Is this a navigation app for the ride?
No, and it is not trying to be. You still navigate with REVER, Gaia GPS, or your GPS. The Dirt Brief is the pre-ride briefing that gets your whole crew on the same page, the part a route file cannot carry.
What does it cost for a group moto adventure?
Your first trip is free with every feature unlocked. After that it is $9 one-time per trip, or $39/year for unlimited trips. Only the organizer ever pays, and riders are always free.
