Title: waypoints and tracks?
Post by: Ida_Mann on April 06, 2005, 06:28:45 AM
anybody got an interest of posting the waypoints and tracks that they took on a weekend of riding? or a particular day?

I'll start.

I like the more scenic and interesting trails rather than the fast blazing trails,,,,here's mine.

ps: it's a mapsource file,,,,I'll figure out how to post a picture later.

If you can see it on the screen then capture and save as a pic.

you have to print it out then scan it and save it. thats the only way i could do it. i had a lot of trails saved on my desk top before it crashed. i had trails saved that might implicate me in crossing restricted areas. those were the old days. i'm 97% legal now. i have quite a few legal trails saved on this lap top. the thing is, trails that were legal last week might not be legal this week.

For the picture:
If you have map source you bring up the program with the tracks downloaded.. Bring up the track and ( Print Screen) prt scr key and go into your photoediting (i have adobe photoshop) program and it click new and then paste (ctrl- shift key)

For the file:  just save which track on the program (map source)
and be able to serve it on the web, or you might be able to upload it like you would a picture and just right click the picture and (save target As)  if it is not over 75k in size,,


Here is what we did sunday,, my mom age 60 just bought a recon 250 after riding mine for 10 mins, so i took her where there were some open trails,,,and a little mud ;D and my dad got a kawi 360 so they are hooked ;D
