I knew that this issue would have already been dealt with and after a long search, Peobody has provided the answer, It seems that keeping your planned routes in the order you planned them is really easy--- when you know how. All this in Basecamp before transferring. I tried the numbering system, I u...

I know that this conversation happened in May, but, just for info, if you get outlandish mileages or odd routing ( like a molecular model) from a downloaded route, first resort go to trip planner and change vehicles, from motorcycle to car and then back, this will recalculate the route, as inexplica...
