Can anyone help me get the routes from RidewithGPS to a gpx or kml file?
AIUI I’d need to pay membership to be able to use offline or download. I just need to get them into MapOut.


Hi Paulatic,
When you have got the route loaded on ridewithgps, on the right hand side of the screen is a menu bar with 3 options, Overview, Metrics and Export.
click on the export tab and then either click on TCX Course or GPX Track (.gpx) - both of these options are in orange text. As long as you don't click any of the options in the boxes then you can export without the need to sign up. :D

Any problems let me know.

Email received and thanks for all the work pulling this together.

I feel like a bit of a passenger but maybe my turn comes on the front of the group in a headwind.

I will be following Chris Boardmans sage advice on dealing with head winds .... "Slow Down". :)
