MapSource files for Gap and Adirondacks

by **Whisperinsmith** » Wed Apr 16, 2008 10:46 am

I mentioned this in another post, but for those who are interested in files for their GPS, I have made two routes in MapSource. I will be happy to send these to you via email. I'm still learning this GPS stuff, so the maps might not be exactly for your style. But you can easily change them. For example, I have 24 Waypoints in the Adirondacks file and then when I made the Gap file, I realized I could do it much simpler without the Waypoints.

But the work is done and they are yours for the asking.

PS Just finished the Mt. Equinox ride too if anyone wishes it for a GPS. As I traced that route, it looks like fun. I'll try to get the other two done soon too. Putney ride and the Mohawk Trail ride.

I'll take them when you are finished working them. My email is mattf301@yahoo.com. I'm new at this too.

I'd love a copy of those e-mailed to me as well. I'm arriving on Thursday so i'll have extra time to tool around.

Send to bigalrehm@yahoo.com.

Thanks,
Alan

Hey guys,
I just sent the files off to you. I finished all five rides. I hope they work out okay. As I said in the email, I'm no MapSource expert, but the bulk of the work is done. If you need to refine them, it should be easy and you won't have to start from scratch.

Alan, which bike are you riding to Bennington? I had the '06 Sprint for the Pocano Rat Raid and loved it. But this new Tiger fits me just fine. I think it's a twin to Matt's black Tiger. Even to the MRA Vario screen.

See you pretty soon!

PS After making these maps, I want to ride each one! Great job Mark, Tito and Benny.

Thanks, that was fast.

I'm bringing the Sprint on this trip. My friend from NH is riding his blue sprint as well. We were both at the last RAT raid in NC & in Gettysburg, PA. I haven't been up to New England for 2 years so I'm really looking forward to it.

Apparently we're having an issue with our mail server at work. I'll send them off to you as soon as it's fixed. Sorry about that.

Got them John. Thanks. Got a few Waypoints, eh? I'll load the Adirondack map in tonight. See you soon!

Ya, I didn't want to miss any turns! If you look at the other routes, I learned how to map them without using waypoints. Hey, live and learn. I'm just a little slower.

But I think they'll do the trick. As I said, they will get us back to Bennington if the others leave us in the dust.

PS Just use MapSource to take the waypoints out of that route if they annoy you before you put it in the Garmin.
