Motorcycle Tours
Please, keep your eyes on the road at all times.
Watch your speed. If
you have a question, read my Warning page.
All the waypoint files on this website were created by a
Magellan GPS receiver.
The files for Magellan receivers are the files ending with wpt and upt.. If you
own a Magellan Meridian GPS, either Color, Platinum or Gold, and use
Magellan Mapsend software, you don't need any extra software. The upt
files are used by the Magellan Explorist units. If you have another make
of GPS unit, your procedure will be different. The following are directions for the Magellan Meridian
and Explorist series
GPS. If you own something different, then your set up will be different. Set up your
Magellan GPS so that the "map orientation" is in "track up" mode. To
do this get in the map screen. Press the "menu" button, then toggle to
"map setup". Press "enter". Toggle to "orientation" and press "enter".
Toggle to "track up" and press "enter", then "escape". That's it. Now as
you ride the map will turn with you making left turns to the left and
right turns to the right.
 Once you
have the waypoint files in your GPS unit, just follow them as if they
were arrows on the road. I usually mark once before the turn, then one
at the turn and one after the turn.
