Every rank, title and badge that can appear on a Rider Card - and exactly how each one is earned. Nothing here is bought or gated: it all comes from riding, sharing and contributing.
Your public rank, driven by contribution points. There are 100 ranks: ten named tiers, each split into ten sub-ranks (I-X), so your card reads like “Road Captain VII”. Here are the ten tiers with the points to reach each.

Points come from contributions accepted by reviewers - guides, routes, reviews and more. The curve is gentle early and steepens toward the top.
A second title track earned not by points but by how many badges you hold. Each tier you cross unlocks a title you can pin to your card.
Rare, hand-awarded titles shown in gold on the right of the card. Not earned by points or counts - granted by Rider Wiki.
A temporary place pulled from the live all-time contributor leaderboard. It moves as ranks change - the top three get gold, silver and bronze.
