    @jack-van-tilburg Thank you. I had it wrong about the XT. From looking at various posts on problems with sending files to it, I managed to get the impression that MRA .gpx 1.2 exists because MRA .gpx 1.1 would not work with the XT. I couldn’t get my head around why that should be, but let it pass. That blog went some way to sorting my wrong impression out. I still don’t know entirely why .gpx 1.2 exists, to be honest. But that is of absolutely no consequence whatsoever. I’m happy to leave it that way! And apologies for straying from topic and refraining from translation!

    @mark-hamilton-0 Thanks for your reply Mark, good to hear someone else has the same problem. I took a look at your link and see the developers are working on it. Let’s hope the next revision to V1.1 fixes the issue.

    @fozzie Hi Fozzie, welkom to to forum You can record this in 2 places in your routes and in 1 place in your tracks. Itineraries: Open your route, and go to "Route information" via the left dropdown menu. [image: 02d82b05-a689-48d7-acb4-5bb1e16b003c-image.png] In the description box you can put all the notes that you mentioned in your post. Via the same drop-down menu, you can go to "Comments" and you can also leave a comment here, but that is actually more intended for people who have driven your route. [image: 296328d0-e132-4c47-bbc9-489882629672-image.png] Track logs: Open the Tracklog, and in the left column, you will also see "Comments", this one is actually intended for people who use your track to leave a comment. [image: 42a5a3b0-cc34-4e9a-8a5e-7f6de016dbfc-image.png] Also take a look in the RouteXpert library and open a route that is there, the 1st text block you see is the text that is in the route information.

    @colin-hodgkinson The motorbike museum at the top of the Timmelsjoch pass is interesting but be aware that from Italy into Switzerland you have to pay a toll as I got caught out. I can't remember the exact route off the top of my head but on the way to Venice the journey from Chur to Lake Como was breath taking though didn't have the time to really enjoy it. At the top of Lake Como we stayed in a hotel that is set up for bikers and was reasonable, it was called Hotel Lago Di Como in Colico. Which ever route you take will be fun just be aware Switzerland is expensive

    @nik-player Yes, absolutely, you’re right. That would require carrying a device that can run BaseCamp of course, which is not something I’d particularly want to do, but it is doable nonetheless. And something like the Microsoft Surface Go 3 would be a fairly compact and reasonably powerful way of going about it. Various means of accessing a mobile signal for data could be employed too, either inbuilt or via an external device… I’m almost selling this to myself as I type! However, in addition to preferring to travel light, my focus is on reducing the amount of technology I rely on and the number of devices that need to be replaced at great expense, often simply due to manufacturers making them ‘obsolete’ for no good reason. This is where I hoped MRA would be ideal, but, to date, I have found the navigation side of its offering sadly lacking and I have reverted to using my Garmin Zūmo, which is really disappointing.
