That's exactly what I've done so far. My "ADV Riding" profile differs from Motorcycle only by unchecking Unpaved Roads. Based on my understanding the route would transferred exactly but then would be recalculated because my Motorcycle profile in the Zumo XT does not allow for Unpaved Roads...

I've come upon a planning challenge that relates closely to the content in this thread. I have a BMW R1250 GS and, up to this point, all of my routes have been on pavement. As such, one of my checked Road Type Avoidances has been Unpaved Roads. I have many routes planned this way. Now, I am ready to...

Honestly, I'm not really sure what the smaller pane is showing hence me starting this thread. I think it's either the next 30 miles or it's the entire route compressed into that small space. The full screen, though, looks to be the whole route and it can be spread out with the +/- buttons and panned...

This was a poor example. The reason that the Current Elevation is 261 feet is because I am at home and not moving. The screen shots are from a short route using the Simulated GPS mode. The screens show the simulated progress about 15 miles from the start. Had I actually been riding I think the Curre...

Now I know more. A quick call to Garmin Technical Support resulted in the recommendation to press on the box that opens when starting the Elevation tool. Bingo, it expands to a full screen that shows a much bigger elevation profile that is stationary while the blue vertical line moves along the mile...

It would be very useful if it was a preview of the elevation changes on the current route for the next 30 miles. I did notice that the profile ended as a via point was reached (in my case a reminder to get fuel) and refreshed when the via point was passed. There's is something going on there, I just...

I trust that the elevation figure is close as I’m not running anything else to verify it. Seems like a missed opportunity by Garmin either to explain it adequately or have it work as we would reasonably expect.

Thanks, good to know Garmin is watching out for my safety lol.

I had a chance to play with some of the Zumo's apps on a recent long trip. One that confounded me was the Elevation app. I'm not sure what to expect from it. Is it just a suggestion of what's ahead on my route? I found that I could not correlate my current elevation (indicated at the top in the blue...

I'm pretty sure this thread answers my questions but wanted to confirm. Does the arrow in the lower right corner animate the weather radar? And, does this animation only work while stationary?



Thank you,
