I need help figuring out how to use the routeplanner app
-
I can use Basecamp at a rookie level. This past summer I created a route from Ottawa to Nova Scotia, then home to Winnipeg in Basecamp…then I traded my FJR1300 with it’s Garmin 396 in on a 2024 BMW R1300 GS. A steep learning curve ensued with the help of a fellow BMW rider near Atlanta who talked me through the process and rational of converting the .gpx files that I had created using Basecamp into files that the Connected Ride Navigator could use..
I am determined to learn and use the routeplanner app - I have the Gold subscription, but I haven’t been able to follow the video’s on Youtube, and the app works in a very different way from Basecamp.
Is there anyone who can help me learn the basics of the routeplanner app using Facetime or Facebook messenger?Certified JB Welder

@Robert-Collings have you tried using the "manuals" ?
After you get the basics of the app, its easy to use !

I have it figured out..enough to create a couple of routes that I have compared to each other. Luckily for me - there are only a very few ways to get across the Canadian Prairies to the mountains..Accommodations availability is a deciding factor.Certified JB Welder

@Robert-Collings there are actually many ways across. Consider dropping down into the US for some great roads or travel north to find more interesting roads and terrain. I did that trip this past summer. 14,000 kms in 29 days.

I’ve taken #16 as far west as Edmonton, #1 as far as Vancouver and #2 as far west as Cadillac, Saskatchewan. The problem with routes south of #1 is the availability and frequency of accommodations.
My first day is Winnipeg - Moose Jaw.
My second day is Moose Jaw - Coleman Ab.
My third day is Coleman Ab. - Creston B.C
My fourth day is Creston - Nakusp -

Just to be sure I just created a route that took 2 lane roads south of the Trans-Canada, then measured the distances between stops..and was pleasantly surprised. I just have to confirm the availability of gas stations due to the smaller tank size of my R1300 GS..
