Hey guys, quick note,

So what does it do Bender?

Track your ride via your mobile phone?

Or do you upload a trip report to it after you have done the ride?

That would have been helpful information – lol
it does track your ride like a lot of others, the bit i like about this is that you use the app to take photos which adds them to your trip report, you can add notes/captions to the photos as well. there is a check in function, a pretty good statistics page (speed calculations can be a bit off). it all links into a web site where you can check ur friends trips etc.
reason i posted it was that for a freeby it is pretty good, and a good way to share a good days riding with a group of like mided people
anyone perhaps know of a better one?

My Android phone has a function that lets people track me, much like a spot tracker, it gives them a link and shows my progress on google maps [via their email address].

The draw back is it has to have phone network coverage, there is also no other function to share information or pics directly via the app.

Looks like I might have to register on yet another web site, with yet another password to remember. :blink:

I looked at the site earlier but you have to register so I didn’t get around to it.

Went for a ride on Sunday to try out the oziexplorer android app. Seems to work well, you make your own maps and store them on the phone. No problems if you don’t have phone coverage and you can see trails that other maps like google don’t have.
The red line is the GPS tracker.
