Me, never
to my own disappointment. I usually take a ton of photo's and these provide the memory of the trip. I also keep the route, and all info concerning my preparations on my home computer hard drive. I have been driving since 1984 or something like thatn with trips getting longer...I seldom take any tracks either. It does give the route I took, but it does not seem to register the datetime at each point, the speed I had at that point. Things I could get out of my first GPS; a garmin etrex. Maybe I am just doing something wrong?

I would love to do a travel story as I tend to do a daily write up when I am away on trips, but I don't know where to start

Hi Ian, start with tracking your routes and take Some pictures with the mobile app. When you add a travelstory, You can add the tracklogs info the travelstory and the pictures will automatic follow the tracklog

I really would like to do travelstories or blogposts. I love it to share with the group I drove, or with friends - or sometimes withe the whole world.
But there is a great great Blocker!! MRA does not offer the needed properties to limit access to travelstories and blogposts as I wrote above. There is only the possibility to keep it private or share withe the whole World. This is against gouvernments Law for data protection!For only private use, I don't need travelstories nor blogposts, because I can do some notes in route or track. And I can attach photos (moments) onto track in MRA.
Nothing is impossible ;-)

@Guzzist I have "a little black book" where i keep times of departure and arrival a fist impression of the hotel, or places visited, kilometers driven that day, how many liters of gas... etc... I would not use MRA for this. First because I travel with a GPS, not the MRA navigation tool, second because I think I can't download aal that data from MRA if I wanted to.

We have a little black book as well as @Drabslab described. Sometimes we digitalise the story on route, but most of the time we have a lot of fun writing and editing from home after the trip. We take 20 minutes every day we arrive somewhere to jog down things like departure time, fuel, breakfast, lunch, sightseeing, camping or hotel etc
We also have a website and Instagram account @motortravelicious -

I would like come back to that topic, because I'm going to ride a long journey and want to write a blog about.I really don't understand the logic about blog at all. Last time, I reportet insufficient construction of access rights.
But this time, I detected: blogs can be figured as "public" - but there is no possibility in MRA to find publisched blogs at all!
Only if I share the link of my post to someone - he will be able to use this link an to see my post. If he has also an MRA user account, he can also see/use my attached routes or tracklogs.Without my shared link, it's not possible to find my post by others!
Another issue: if someone has got my shared link to my post - how will he informed, there is a new day in travelpost? I fear, no one will be informed. Or in other direction: there is no possibility to "follow" an user, to gets information about new blogs.
Please can you give a statement. The existing trainig videos are a bit outdated.
I know, there are a lot of diary- or travel apps on the market, to share experiences with others. But why should I use those, if we have MRA?
Important USP for MRA: the other apps mostly can't contain a tracklog nor a route. And if yes, the are not able to share this with others as .gpx file!
If I would like to share a journey with other MRA-users - for sure, I would share my tracklog or route as well!Kind regards

RainerHello Ranier,
Blogs and travelogues are indeed always public when you publish them.
It is also true that you can only find the blogs or travelogues if you have the url or if you look at someone's profile page and then click on "Blogs".
The reader will indeed have to regularly check whether there is an update.
I always make the travel story afterwards and then share the url on my website : https://www.mrmra.com/blogs.phtmlThe website will be tackled this year, as soon as the new app is in production.
In any case, I will take it with me when the website is tackled.
