  1. Well, I started to build a waypoint generator, but asked whether anyone else
    had already done something similar. Fortunately, someone had. I've played
    around with their original and now have something that works with GPSU.

    You need to zoom to the level you want and click start. Mark your waypoints
    (no way of removing incorrect ones at the moment so be careful!), click save
    when finished. Copy the GPX output at the bottom, save it as myroute.gpx and
    open with GPSU (GPS Utility). This uploads perfectly to my GPS unit. I even
    took a walk around the block to test it out 🙂

    Now I need a little help ... I need to get a bracket for my bike for a
    Magellan GPS 315, and need to be able to swap over between bikes easily.
    Also, I'd like to put the machine on the stem part of the handlebars.

    Any advice appreciated

    Nick

    Devious detective methods lead me to believe that the URL you left out

    As it happens, I have just finished my first Google maps application. OK,
    well, perhaps 'finished' is a strong word - it's still pretty buggy.
    You'll find it here:
