11. Recording your route Recordi ng your route About recording your route There are several reasons why you may want to record a route. You may be on the riding vacation of a lifetime and want to share the route with fellow bikers or you may simply wish to build a collection of your favorite routes. When the recording of a route stops, two files are created. The first file is a GPX file that holds very detailed information and can be viewed with software such as Google Earth.
Using the file There are several things you can do with your GPX file: • Connect your Rider to your computer and view the file using software such as Google Earth. Note: While viewing your recording, you may notice that the recorded GPS locations do not always correspond with the roads. This can happen for several reasons. Firstly, your device tries to keep the files small and this can cause a slight loss of data precision.

Tap the screen to bring up the Main Menu. 2. Tap options. 3. Tap Itinerary planning. 4. Tap Options. 5. Tap Load Itinerary.
