    Hello to you all, I’m from Crewe in Cheshire. I’ve dabbled with MRA over the last few years but was reluctant to give up on Basecamp then I changed my 1190 KTM for a 1290 which came with built in app based navigation. It worked ok but was turn by turn with no map but it got you there. Anyway KTM ‘updated’ there app and it stopped working for me so I got my trusty Zumo 660 out then decided I’ll just get a new Zumo, bought an XT and gave the 660 to my son. This is when the fun started and I just found Basecamp impossible to use, super slow, generally clunky and always frustrating. I’d forgotten about MRA but a quick Google got me to the website and I logged back in. I’m off to Scotland for Easter and wanted to create a few routes which MRA let me do with no frustration… I’ve created a few test routes and pinged them over to my XT via Garmin Drive and all is good. I was that impressed I upgraded to Gold 🙂

    Cheers
    Dave

        @Dellis

        Welcome back.
        I have the XT also, however, MRA Next Beta is looking like it will be a good replacement for the the XT once it comes out of Beta.
        I do run the XT as well MRA Next Beta at the moment

        Enjoy your Scotland Trip.

        You don’t stop riding when you get old, you get old when you stop riding.

          Hi @Dellis Welcome back to MRA. Agree with @Lynchy67 that the Navigation Next is looking really good in Beta and the Web Planner is the best for trips - binned Basecamp a long while ago with my XT and never looked back.
          Live 'down the road' in Shrewsbury from you.

          Kind Regards. Help where I can.

              @Lynchy67 is Navigation Next a phone based system?
