[QUOTE="Iris, post: 1306660, member: 972"] okay. I just set my gps and basecamp up the way your document indicates. Thanks. Perhaps my problem was that I had certain avoidances checked off (like dirt roads, etc.) while I was creating the 'series of points'. It just made sense to me to check 'avoid' for those areas that I wanted to avoid. I had also made sure that my GPS unit had the same avoidances, speeds, etc. It sounds like what you're saying is that if I want to avoid them, then in lieu of having them checked off as 'avoidances', I should simply create my route and then physically manipulate the route to avoid what I want to (thus creating more via points). This also makes sense although I end up with many more manipulations. No problem though because I don't see those huge flags that I used to see and I can tell those shaping points to be quiet and not alert me. I will try this method again the next time I go for a ride. Thanks!!! Now....if I want to go ride on some dirt roads, then I can just keep the same settings and create my route the same way. That actually makes it easier so I don't have to toggle between profiles (ie: dirt road riding vs motorcycling). [/QUOTE]
