Trip planning....

[Az Wingrider]

We use Roadtrippers.com however many GPS's claim to allow you to build a trip and load it in your unit although I've never gotten one to work. Roadtrippers can be a bit clunky to use but does help you build a route to your liking.

I routinely load very detailed trip routes into my Garmin Zumo. Most all of the routing programs allow you to convert the route to a gpx file and that can be downloaded into most Gps's. I have downloaded trips of as long as two weeks into my Zumo with no problem.

Thanks. I just downloaded the Scenic app. I see that it tracks your route, and I believe you can send a pre-made route to it, or use the app itself to program your own route.

I will experiment with it and check back in.

Good luck with it. Its like a lot of other things the more you do it the easier it becomes.

I'm assuming you have to belong to Good Sam before you use the software to plan a trip. I have Garmin GPS and use there BaseCamp.

You must belong to them. However, I use then instead of AAA. The beauty about there program is they'll recover your vehicle from anywhere. I had a friend who broke down 50 miles away from help in the Mojave and they came and picked him up. Since I like to explore that is important to me.

I use Tom Tom route planner. Not sure if it's free but here is the link

Also in my opinion if you are using "avoid highways" then the max distance I ride per day is 350-400 miles. Good Luck
