Route scoring for motorcyclists

Score any route
before you ride it.

MotoScore evaluates roads on what matters when you're on a bike — pavement, traffic, curviness, and several other factors — tailored to how you ride.

Six-factor ride score

Curvature, elevation change, surface quality, vertical exposure, altitude ceiling, and scenic impact — weighted to your riding style.

Export to any device

One-touch to Google Maps, or GPX export — Garmin-optimised, with standard GPX for other navigation tools.

Save & compare routes

How it works

Three steps from map to GPS.

Step 01

Draw or import your route

Click waypoints on the map, or drop in a GPX file from Garmin Explore, Komoot, or anywhere else. Road-snapping handles the geometry automatically.

Step 02

Choose your ride profile

Select sport, touring, commuter, or custom. Each profile shapes the score around what matters to your riding style.

Step 03

Export to your GPS

Open directly in Google Maps, or export a Garmin-optimised GPX that loads cleanly onto a Garmin motorcycle GPS (tested on the Zumo XT2) and stays on the line you drew.

The score, explained

Great

Million Dollar Highway, CO

High curvature, dramatic elevation change, extreme vertical exposure, and an altitude ceiling above 11,000ft. The score captures what makes this road extraordinary — not just the curves.

Six-factor model

Built for riders, not just roads.

Most apps treat roads as navigation problems. MotoScore treats them as experiences. The six-factor model captures what makes a road feel extraordinary — including things GPS geometry alone can't see, like sheer drop-offs and panoramic altitude.

Skyline Drive in Cañon City, CO is short, relatively straight, and technically unremarkable. It also happens to be one of the most extraordinary roads in the state — perched on a ridge with drop-offs on both sides. The original three-factor model scored it poorly. The six-factor model gets it right.

For the professionals who run the roads.

Tour operators will be able to use MotoScore to pre-validate guest routes, communicate difficulty expectations, and give clients GPX files for their devices. B2B partnerships open in 2027.

  • Score your entire route library before the season starts
  • Export client-ready GPX files for Garmin, Wahoo, TomTom, and Google Maps
  • API access planned for 2027 — reach out to follow along as we build it
