B. I track my routes with the MRA Navigation app, but I haven't used it yet to take photos. I have a route I am taking tomorrow, and I plan to take pictures then. I am just starting to use MRA, by the way. So far, I love it.

I hope this isn't viewed as inappropriate here. It is a little challenging to locate riders by location in MRA, so I'm posting this in the hope of finding riders in or near Texas. If you live in Texas or live close to Texas, let us know by posting here. Tell us what part of Texas you live in. You might find new friends here by doing so.

Also, if you live near southeast Texas, consider joining my Southeast Texas Riders group. Finding pleasant routes in this area isn't easy. Perhaps we can help one another in that way.

Welcome to the forum, Rob. I like your bikes, especially the white one.

@Nick-Carthew said in Ferry Problem:

@Gil-Yoder The Nav app should take you to the ferry, ignore it if it tries to re-route you. It should then re-calculate when you arrive on the other side.

This makes sense, Nick. Thank you for your help.

@Nick-Carthew Skip works fine in the web app, but it doesn't help in the Navigation app. When the route is loaded in the Navigation app, the route is recalculated without the skip.

And the Nav app behaves the same as the web app. The ferry is avoided unless "Avoid highways" is enabled.

Working this out in my head, I guess the thing to do is to use skip to include the ferry when "Avoid highways" is disabled, complete your route with expanded waypoints to force routing on highways, and then enabled "Avoid highways" in the nav app to include the ferry.

That's kind of convoluted, but I think it would work.

I have noticed a problem when a route includes a ferry using HERE routing. For example, look at the following test route:

https://www.myrouteapp.com/route/open/3550405

With a waypoint on either side of the ferry, HERE creates a route that bypasses the ferry in favor of a much longer circuitous route. A workaround is to select Toolkit/Avoid/Highways, but that is not a good solution if you don't want to avoid highways.

The problem does not occur with either Tomtom or OpenStreetMap routing.

I haven't checked to see if this occurs within the navigation app.

If this is a problem with HERE routing, it probably exists within the navigation app.

How can this be elevated for Garmin to check?

@Gil-Yoder Hi Gil, I replied below in Dutch, let me know if you require a translation

No need to translate. Google Translate is bringing the world closer together.

Welcome to MRA, Daniel. I, too, would like to hear what annoyed you about the TT 550.

If you have a set of coordinates you want to use, you might have to convert them to decimal degrees from degrees, minutes, and seconds. There are several web sites that provide that service. For example:

I created an event and then recorded a tracklog for it, adding several moments. Now when I open the tracklog, I see the following under Moments.

The checkbox was checked automatically and cannot be unchecked. Does this mean that moments are not visible to users other than admins of the event? Is there a way to make moments of a tracklog for events public?

Is there a way to unlock these tracklogs to add or remove moments?
