Question about the garmin zumo on the RT

[caw001]

Hello,

Two questions on the Garmin Zumo 660 that comes with the RT.

1.. How do you clear the turquoise routes on the screen that show where you have been?

2. What software do you use to program routes on your Garmin? I'm looking for some tonight...

Thanks!

In settings, you can turn off tracking.
Garmin has a program called Base Camp you can download.

Here's a thread I found helpful for getting routes onto a Garmin.

The Folks at Harley have a good travel site

Once you load Base Camp on the Garmin one of the best sites to go to for travel routes is located here

http://rideplanner.harley-davidson.com/rideplanner/ridePlanner.jsp


You can plan out your trip on the Harley ride planner, make any modifications or corrections you wish, save it in their database and then download it to your Zumo 660 using Basecamp. The software is very user friendly and you can drag the icon over to various roads to change the routing if you want to explore.

I have already mapped out our route to and from Spyderfest and plugged in the motel stops we have reserved for the nine nights of our trip. (We're going to explore a lot).

Routes on Zumo

Garmin also has a program called MapSource I've used for years. I can't get BaseCamp to download for me, but MapSource (though it's not particularly user friendly), works quite well.
