Day Trips & Tracking Software with Apps

Postby CountryCruzr » Tue Oct 18, 2016 9:02 pm

This past Saturday was a gorgeous day to ride! So took advantage of it by taking a mid afternoon to twilight ride winding through the northern section of Southeastern Ohio. It has been awhile since I used my tracking apps. On TWF I remember Rogue sharing a screen shot from the Rever app that caught my attention. I didn't use Rever this time, instead I used Spotwalla and SW Connect (iphone app). SW Connect saves your 'breadcrumbs' which you later upload. Rever https://rever.co/and Eat Sleep and Ride https://eatsleepride.com/ provide a track of your ride along with elevation and speed and lean angle. The picture was not taken while I was moving. :D Hopefully this entry can generate some discussion in this category.

Here was the route:

CCruzr, we need to meet up next year, somewhere a little south of New Philly.
I've been there before. Can I get there, again?

Count me in. It's just the next state over. I'll bring my tent if someone will let me use their yard :D

Oh that's cool!! We've taken trips to Italy and France and around Amsterdam, and really wanted to put up our winding trail. This would have been so cool. Does it kill your battery while it works??

Sorry for not seeing this until now. Not sure how I missed it VStar. Salt Fork would work out for me. When do you typically start your riding season? I know from past posts you like the warmer weather. (My riding season is getting planned out around business and other events going on this year, so I'm glad I finally saw your post!) It would be great to meet up with you and Mamaw Suze, There is also the Ladies Adventure Weekend in September 8-9 in Dover which is open to any woman motorcyclist, any brand bike and you have the option of driving if the weather isn't nice. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ladies-adventure-weekend-2017-tickets-30816015532?aff=erelexpmlt I'm sure there's camping around there too Mamaw Suze :P Stay warm!

It isn't as bad as running google maps for navigating but it will use it up. (I'm s-l-o-w-l-y getting caught up on here, as I'm way behind on this posting, sorry :oops: )

See my comments to VStar. I'll be going through Indiana and up into Illinois in mid July, via I-70 thru Indy and then I-74 are you anywhere nearby?

I'm still using Rever and still loving it! I've never noticed a lean angle in it, how did you track that?
