Re: Exporting GPX file

I'll offer a suggestion for the latter part of this question, although I don't doubt that someone with far more knowledge than I will prove it wrong. When taking a break mid route do not "stop" the route, just let the 590 close itself down and when you place it back in the cradle and it co...

Re: Transferring Routes

The activity profiles are as near identical as Basecamp / Zumo allow and the maps are the same version. I'm sorry, but considering the purpose of Basecamp and a GPS I think it's pretty shoddy workmanship. I would imagine in a couple of years these discussions will all be academic anyway as more bike...

Re: Transferring Routes

Hi, Thanks for the replies. Stu, unfortunately the route does start from home. Sussamb, yes, I have compared both as you say and the version on my Zumo was nothing like the Basecamp route which I had sent.

Road Type??

When setting Route Options there is the choice of Road Type Avoidences. What is the UK definition of Interstates, Major Highways and State Highways in relation to our system of Motorways, A roads and B roads??

Re: Exporting GPX file

Hi, thanks for the replies. How about if I were to go into Route Options and save the route as a Customised Route before I sent the GPX file, I'm guessing it would then retain it's properties. Am I correct??

Exporting GPX file

I have created a number of routes for an upcoming trip using Basecamp set to my motorcycle profile. If I email these routes to someone else, they download them and then import them into their own Zumo will the routes stay as I intend them or, if their motorcycle profile is different to mine, will th...
