@Marinus-van-Deudekom Ja, gewoon met 2 knoppen om de 2 verschillende optie te tonen, ideaal tijdens het plannen van je route, de tijden tussen de "harde" punten [image: 1785945205938-505a7d7a-9f53-4e52-a0e0-1578207b7195-image.jpeg]

seems distance is not the main factor with this oddity, it can also occur for a simple 2 point route with <20 miles between them increasing the distance just makes it easier to spot as there are more opportunities / a higher probability of it going wrong [image: 1785965158700-034c4cea-656a-48aa-898a-0e98eb619f42-image.jpeg] simply moving point #2 half a mile further up the road results in the calculation for the offline track navigation route deviating by 3 miles when the navigation is started the only settings enabled are "offline navigation", "navigatie route as track" & "use all waypoints" no other settings are enabled or changed between tests it appears the oddity is a bit random but somehow related to distance

Yes, we have already driven about 300 km each for two days with the latest version V5.2.1(488), runs very well in the mobile phone applications so in the MRA... Thank you for that —- Ja wir sind jetzt schon zwei Tage jeweils ca. 300 km mit der neusten Version V5.2.1(488) gefahren, läuft sehr gut in der Handy Anwendungen also in der MRA… Danke dafür [image: 1785786128819-img_0676.jpeg]

Sì, sono riuscito a trovarlo in italiano. Grazie mille!

@John-S-Parry I totally understand and I mostly agree. I've used both the OSM and HERE maps extensively in MRA. However I do believe that the "lowest common denominator" between MRA and Garmin are the HERE maps, and my best chance of seeing my exact route that I planned in MRA on my Garmin device is using the HERE map in MRA. I think that this belief is echoed by many of the top MRA experts on this forum (which I AM NOT!). Is it perfect using HERE maps on both MRA and Garmin? NO, absolutely not! Is it better than using the OSM map in MRA, then saving the route as a .gpx file and importing it into a Garmin which uses the HERE maps as its base maps and not the OSM maps? Based on my experience.... YES. I really like the OSM maps.... don't get me wrong. My goal when I create a route in MRA and transfer it to my Garmin is to follow the route EXACTLY as I planned it in MRA. In MY experience, MY very best chance of accomplishing that goal is to: Plan the route in the online version of MRA using the HERE map, and put via points where I definitely want to stop or at least pass by (petrol/gas stations, overlooks, monuments, restaurants, or whatever) Put enough shaping points in MRA to shape the route exactly like I want to ride it. This is where MRA excels and makes creating exactly the route that I want easier than any other application that I have ever used. Save the route using the .gpx 1.2 format Import the .gpx 1.2 route into the Garmin and place it into a collection along with the track so that I can see both of them simultaneously (this is for the XT2 and XT3.... previous models don't use collections so there are other methods for showing routes and tracks simultaneously) Avoid skipping via points as much as possible, and if I must then I just restart the route and enter at the closest entry point. I think that we all realize that EVERYTHING we do between MRA and GARMIN involves compromises. If there is a "perfect" solution I most certainly don't know what it is, nor have I ever heard of anyone who does. I believe that the best we can do is weigh all of the variables and do what we think is best for our application. There are really no right or wrong definitive answers! The key is understanding the options and limitations so that you can make an intelligent choice, and I'm very thankful for all of the expertise and thoughtful input everyone has provided here. I have learned a lot!

enjoy the country side. hope it isn't raining cats and dogs

Dit is SUPER!, ongelooflijk hoe jullie met zo'n kleine groep mensen dat voor elkaar krijgen. Voor allemaal super bedankt en in dit geval Cor-Jan

Zijn er groepen die camperroutes hebben op gpx via MRA

Welcome! Hope your trip goes smoothly! Enjoy!

I know the area of the first two well, and they look very good to me. Just rode 1/3rd of route 1 this afternoon! And I like the info waypoints. Only one minor comment: some of the waypoints are just in front of a vital turn (route 1 waypoints 7 & 45, for example). I worry that the waypoint announcement might clash with the turn instruction (if people are using audio). Both have waypoints after the junction, so 7 & 45 (and any similar pre-junction ones) might be redundant.

@Lynchy67 It is on the list for major maintenance of the website, just like being able to export multiple routes in one go. Please be patient.

@Garry-Davis exactly, that would have been my second advice, but you are one step ahead. You can choose your beloved app, to count a route to the petrolstation

Hi ! So, the bad news is that Transfagarasan is still closed for now, but it should be opened in the next two weeks. You can check the live cam from time to time: https://www.roxy-world.ro/webcam-transfagarasan Good news is that Transalpina was opened about 5 days ago, some of my friends went there already and confirmed this. Enjoy Romania !
