If you have trouble registering then email support @ iforpowell.com and I can force things though.
The system is not that good but I prefer to spend my time working on IpBike than trying to set up an alternative. It is at least good at keeping the spam away.
It is advisable to 'copy' before you try and post as the captcha stuff is a bit to agresive and the back buttone is not working for everyone. You can at least then paste and have another go.

Mar 30 2022, 10:14 I use the free site BRouter-Web for route planning: https://brouter.de/brouter-web/ With that, on the top left corner, pick a profile that suits your riding style. "Trekking bike" will route you over cycle paths, "Fastbike" will prefer roads, and "Fastbike-lowtraffic" will prefer minor roads. I usually pick "Fastbike-lowtraffic" for roadbike routes and get very good results with that. Now, on the right side, click on the wrench icon to customize your profile. On there, scroll down, and set the option "turnInstructionMode" to "gpsies-style". Now export your route as gpx (no need to include waypoints). This gpx file can be loaded in IpBike and will have turn instructions. They don't always make perfect sense, but at least they alert me to look at the display when a turn comes up.

Mar 30 2022, 10:25 Another method that works is to plan the route with Locus Maps Pro on your phone, and export it as gpx. I only tried that with using Brouter as the offline routing method. The setup takes some effort, but there are good tutorials for that on Youtube. Routes created like that will also have turn instructions that IpBike can use. |
