Hi, I've been bikepacking for a few years now and love it to bits, that is apart from uploading routes to my Etrex!
I've got Basecamp on my PC and somehow every event I do I manage to get the route on the device but god knows how.
Would anyone who lives within a 30 mile radius of my House in Tatsfield TN16 be willing to give me a tutorial and get me going in the right direction.
Thanks for any help.

Isn't it easiest to just copy the file from your PC to the GPX folder on the Garmin? I suspect using Basecamp might be complicating things.

Yeah I guess so, I've just been fudging it for a couple of years and really need to wipe clean and set up a fresh but the right way.

In Basecamp it is just Copy, Paste, or drag and drop.

I work near the airport, and use basecamp with my etrex 35 - could pop round on my way home, if the timing is right.

Cheers Belugabob, that would be a great help, I'm just off to Belgium for Act 3 race but should be back by Monday 6th, I'm in most of the time and I'll get the tea & cake ready for when you arrive, just give me a bell.
Thanks
Thanks
