February 6, 200620 yr Hello Just a thought that has accrued to me over the weekend as I entered yet another waypoint of the trials venue that I had attended As so many riders now use gps satellite navigation would it not be a good idea if all rider could share the locations of trials venues so how about this for a idea, groups of poi listed under Centre heading (eg, East Midland Centre ), National or pre65 I have been compiling one for East Midland Centre for some time and it quite useful so if riders would like to send waypoints filed in the format of either .gpx or .ov2 we can compile a list and make it freely available to all riders Email list to J@hn1.co.uk
February 6, 200620 yr I use a Garmin Streetpilot so those file formats wouldn't work for me, but despite that I think it is a jolly good idea.
February 6, 200620 yr Author yes they would try this go to mapsource (came with your garmin or free download from garmin )conect your unit save waypoints as *.gpx Edited February 6, 200620 yr by towinguk
February 6, 200620 yr I'd considered it, but decided against it. We have enough trouble trying to keep illegal riders off our venues without it being publicly available. I'm not being arsy there by the way I put ours on our web site during the lead up to a trial, but no real desire to make them known globally, just in case.
February 6, 200620 yr Our club: Bradford & Dist also put in GPS/SatNav points in our directions to venues but dont advertise them.
