MTB Diaries is founded by Jesse Dyrt — forty years on trail, from Sonoran granite to respectably obscure corners of the world, studying dirt in just about as many countries.

Ride. Anywhere.

MTB Diaries surveys and tells the stories of the trails worth riding. Original trail reviews, destination guides, and on-the-ground intelligence built from decades of firsthand riding — so you show up prepared, ride with confidence, and explore on your own terms.

We’re not a trail database. We’re not a gear review site. We’re not a tour company. We’re not a forum, and we’re not a rehash of things you can find elsewhere. AI can’t ride The Chutes — it can’t even get the directions right.

The American Southwest is home base — where the trails are technical, the desert is unforgiving, and the riding is genuinely world-class. Our trail surveys build field-verified trail intelligence for riders who want the full picture.

Now featuring Tucson, Arizona. Sedona and Moab coming soon.
