We are currently embedding Ride With GPS maps into our routes toggle through the mapping layers to see the route set against satellite imagery and various OSM basemaps. USING ‘RIDE WITH GPS’ WITH DIFFERENT BASEMAPS AND FILE FORMATS
Gps tracks vs routes android#
You can also push the route directly to your Garmin Edge, Wahoo, iPhone or Android device (via the RWGPS App) by clicking on the Send to Device box, in the top left of the box. Always check back before you start your ride. Going forwards, we’ll also be including a date with each file – by year, month, and day – to ensure you’re working from the latest, updated version. This file includes POIs (Points of Interest) seen on our embedded maps saved as waypoints.
Gps tracks vs routes download#
LOOKING FOR THE GPX FILE?ĭownloading a gpx file of the route in question is simply a case of clicking the Download GPX box below the map and loading it into your device. This is approximated by time, and can vary according to your skill level. The ‘% Rideable’ refers to the amount of the route that can be cycled, as opposed to hike-a-biked. Likewise, ‘% Singletrack’ refers to the percentage of singletrack trail on the entire route. Also, note the ‘% Unpaved’ refers to the percentage of total unsurfaced road or trail on the entirety of the route. If you have questions regarding this, be sure to read the comments section, or post a comment of your own. While we are in the process of updating the difficulty ratings across many routes (on some you’ll note a new ‘Difficulty’ description within the text to help expand on the rating), the number itself is left up to the discretion of the route contributor/designer/author.
UNDERSTANDING OUR RATING SYSTEMīefore digging into the details of downloading and using our GPX files, this is a reminder to note the stats and ratings at the top of each route. And if you scout a better way to navigate a particular section, please share this information so we can continue to evolve the rides we post, and make BIKEPACKING. If anyone discovers aspects of a route that needs to be changed, let us know. As such, we welcome all feedback and updates on an ongoing basis after all, each route is a living entity that will undoubtedly change over time. While we take pride in curating and maintaining our Bikepacking Routes – both developing our own multi-day rides and drawing from the wealth of our contributors’ experience and knowledge – we ultimately consider this key part of the site to be developed for the bikepacking community and motivated by their needs.
