Recent diary entries

I just added in my HUGE track log file.. it's 13,000km long. .. most of which is technically accurate asides from a couple spots where it shows a straight line from town to town. I'm working on editing them all so that each GPS Track Up upload will be for a different route. (hopefully it'll be accepted)

Here's the routes that will be shown (I already have them on the computer, just need to upload)

Trans Canada Highway Route (Cycling on the TC Highway shoulder all the way)
Paved Alternate to the Trans Canada Trail (Although some of the Trans Canada Trail IS paved, this route shows the way across following paved routes)
The Gravel Trail across Canada, mainly along the Trans Canada Trail, follows the paved roads where no gravel exists
The Dirt Trail across Canada, mainly mountain biking and Hiking, and follows the gravel trails and paved roads where no dirt trail exists.

Right now, it's best that I work on the trail edits myself, (on Garmin Map Source) and upload it to here. However, if there are others who want to work on this trail also, please contact me so then i know to be collaborating.

I also have all the points along the way, where are organized in the form on POI files, so then when i update the full down loadable map, everything will be there.

Thanks :)

Trying this out

Posted by acrosscanadatrails on 18 May 2008 in English.

Im just trying this out to see how it works.

Note: My target audience is anyone who wants to travel by bike across Canada
Mainly taking the Awesome Trans Canada Trail. What i have done is connected all of the official trail segments, (as the trail is not complete) and made it easier to get on and off the trail right across the country. My map is available online

Feel free to call me at 250 588 9041 if your in the area and perhaps you want to bike the Trans Canada Trail, i can certainly help you :)
