    Hi all,
    I’m new to MRA having been a lifelong Garmin / Basecamp user. My last Zumo broke recently and I thought I’d give phone based navigation a try. I’ve jumped right in at the deep end and am using the new Next Beta - not sure if this is a good idea or not… 😁 (at the moment my biggest challenge is ‘favourites’ creation and management - I’ll have to do some reading in the forum 🙂 ).
    For my day job I have a one man oil fired boiler engineering business (so lots of driving around the countryside - more need for navigation 😉 ) but outside work, my passion is motorbikes, especially touring. After 15 years of BMW’s, I’ve just bought a KTM - quite a change but I’m loving it!
    Looking forward to learning about MRA and how to get the best out of it. Hopefully I’ll be able to contribute during the beta phase of the new app.

        @Nick-Carthew I must be one of the few weird ones who like BaseCamp - after so long using it I think it’s rewired my brain so it all makes sense 😁
