You probably know this but any route that includes a section that is not a registered road will cause the Garmin to reroute. Given I ride all types of surface, from paved to gravel to some trails, when creating maps I almost always map using tracks and then, if the tracks are on mapped roads and not trails, I will convert the tracks to routes, but save both the track and the route. If you map in one activity and the device is set to another, the device will reroute based on its profile.ģ. When mapping for my DR I always deselect highways in both BaseCamp and on the device. Make sure you have both BaseCamp and your Garmin set to the same activity profile and that you select what type of roads you want to travel. Make sure you have the same version of map in both BaseCamp and on your device.Ģ. There is a lot to it and I am certainly not the expert but along the way I learned a few critical points.ġ. Riding back up there tomorrow on the DR and have since hopefully corrected my error. So I selected the last waypoint closest to my home but the Garmin ignored all the other waypoints and routed me to that waypoint via interstate. I had the DR in Nashville yesterday and wanted to ride the route I thought I created from there to Birmingham where I live. I created waypoints then downloaded to the Garmin however I forgot to actually combine the waypoints into a route so each waypoint downloaded as a separate destination. But it is definitely less involved with fewer functions and features to learn. Google My Maps is pretty easy but it too takes a little time and perseverance to figure it out.
However, I also map routes using Google My Maps and then convert the KML file to a GPX file using an online converter. I hated BaseCamp when I first started using it but now I actually like it.Ģ. It's like learning to do elephant turns.It takes practice, perseverance and a few goofs.
