    my only gripe is that if i go for a ride away for a few days i cannot seem to find a satisfactory way to put the next days route into my navigator (unless predone beforehand) using my iphone would be great to make a new route but as yet i cannot find a way to send that route via iphone in mra to my bmw garmin ?

      I do not really get what you mean but If you want to use the MRA routeplanner in the webbrowser of your iphone then you cabn download a route in gpx to your iphone.

      I assume that your bmw garmin accepts USB? Connect it to the iphone and use that thing as any USB stick?

      It is not difficult, it is easy, it's a hobby

          A USB connector alone is not enough. The adapter must then have a connection for power supply. Apple's Lightning to USB-3 camera adapter has that:

            Why would you need a power supply? The iphone has a battery, and the garmin gps on the BMW is connected to the motorcycle circuit?

              The iPhone sees the navi as an external drive without its own power suply. That's the way it is and I don't know why that is.
              It doesn't work without that extra power suply.

                    😀 been there, done that, spending 50% of the time on "driving back" or "around a mountain" because I took a wrong turn... Adventure riding was adventurous then 😇

                    Long live Michelin, still one of my favorite maps in MRA!!!!

                      This was one of the reasons I switched to Tom Tom.
                      I can send any route directly from MRA (on a mobile device or laptop) to my tom tom rider 550 using the MRA Tom Tom Mydrive Beta option in the “Save as” menu.
                      The only thing I miss from the Garmin is the Media Player. That was awesome.

                      You don’t stop riding when you get old, you get old when you stop riding.
