![]() Thank you very much for putting up with my "silly" questions, hopefully we got there in the end. It just baffles me why Google maps works so easily, and BC has to be so darn complicated So, I will stick at it with BC, and try to perfect it a little better. I couldn't see anywhere I had clicked on the wrong side of a dual carriageway or anything like that, and it didn't deviate from the programmed route at all. Secondly, it did ask me to do a U turn at one point, but looking closely at the map afterwards, I couldn't see any reason for that as all the arrows along the route were going the right way. Is there a way to not have it do that on every shaping point? EDIT: SCRUB THAT, FOUND IT WITHIN THE RIGHT CLICK Have to admit, I put in absolutely loads of shaping points along the way, and it did my head in a bit hearing it saying I had arrived at "such and such". ![]() I even made the start and the end very close to see if it did it. That's the first time I haven't had the Garmin try and reroute me directly to the end destination. Well, took on all the advice and planned a route as per the elastic band method. It's what made making routes with Base Camp sensible for me. It may be easier but I never knew of it so it's foreign to me. Second way: another member here suggested using the route drag & drop method by hovering over your route and using the ALT key. ![]() I learned this from the newenglandriders BaseCamp tutorial. There's two ways I know of to MODIFY a route, I use the first one.įirst way: in my tool bar I added the INSERT, MOVE and ERASE tools. Now MODIFY the route to be what you want it to be. Pick your start point, pick your end point and let BaseCamp make the route. The 29 price point reflects a marketing decision based on price sensitivity at the time it was introduced. BC1 was one of the earliest web-based project management software. I used to mess it up all the time until I discovered another way: don't make a route! Really, it works: Basecamp Classic (BC), Basecamp 2 (BC2) and Basecamp 3 (BC3) are their three versions of software available for purchase. Why didn't Gaarmin ever do a "simple" version for us people that wanna just plan a simple route ![]() Long winded I know, but BC really confuses me, and I almost get a route planned and mess it up cos I forget to click the hand to move the map and land up putting extra points everywhere instead. I can't seem to get the plots out of WKO5 easily, but for 1 min, 5 min, and 20 min, I improved ~40 W! How's that, Tim Cusick? That's something, and now I will continue my progress with one of the BaseCamp coaches, Len Pettyjohn.Been using tyre2travel, and more recently Myrouteapp to plan a route, save the gpx files and import it to BC to check if it will match up on the Garmin. Now I just need to get my heart back to ticking evenly. Before going on a beta blocker to quell nonproductive PVCs, my FTP had risen 10% since the first FTP test, and I think I'd actually gained more since that 3rd test on Jan 21st. I started BaseCamp to get out of the fitness plateau I was in. I carry that with me, and I think what comes out of my musing is, 1) seek expert help, sooner than later. All the sharing amongst us as been so helpful to me as I found myself challenged in ways I didn't expect. Well folks, let me add my thanks to the coaches for the wisdom, enthusiasm, and personal interactions that make BaseCamp special. Hope to see several of you on some rides! Till July or November! Learning during events make you stronger physically & mentally too. Here's to all of you and May you have a successful season. This year will look about the same for events. Here's some of what our season looks like in the picture. He thrived and enjoys it a lot even though he's not on Facebook. Thanks again and fingers crossed I'll start RPI & BC next year fresh & ready to rumble. It helped some but was hard to do a separate WO. I tried to ride on Tuesday/Thursday group rides. Being behind I didn't feel as part of the community. I'm still not where I was this Time compared to last years BC. It was a struggle to get back to any type of fitness, even though I wasn't that sick. I didn't get to start with you all as a week before BC I got Covid. Even if they weren't directed to me it still helped. Thanks to each of you for your encouragement and words throughout BC.
