http://www.mapmyride.com

A community site where people share bike trail routes they enjoy. Also has sections for dog walks, hikes, horse rides, kayaking,
running, skating, swimming, etc.

People are then able to rate the rides with 1-5 stars. This would be especially helpful for people out of town or planning on
being out of town who would like to spend time doing any of these various activities. it would be great to look up nearby hiking,
biking or other routes.

Best part is that if you have google earth installed, you can download a route and run through it beforehand in 3D.
