I’ve down loaded Calimoto yesterday and I’m very impressed. Going to mainland next week with the wife for the first time and been trying to plot a Simon Weir Route all week on other planners, with no success, but last night with Calimoto plotted the Monmouth Loop and 8 straight rides in say 3 and a half hours. So well pleased.
Only thing if your trying to plot a route like Simon Weirs Monmouth Loop, it’s had to find the roads because not enough detail, but saying that, I managed and looking forward to be riding the Loop it’s looks fantastic.
Saw you at the ABR wanted to say hello but, you were always busy. Next time May be.👍

Just back from the france and spain tour downloaded the routes supplied to Calimoto ( simple thanks to Bruce) and found that I couldn't start the routes whilst in the UK.
Once I got to France, the routes worked perfectly !
Also, we had a few 'off bike days' but decided to use Calimoto to find us a route for the day worked brilliantly !
I have a BMW navigator 5 messed about trying to get the routes onto Basecamp, then on to the Nav 5 and couldn't get the routes supplied imported the same routes into Calimoto ( as per Bruce's video) .... BOOM!
Highly recommended app

2:14 Bruce that’s such an important point about Calimoto NOT supporting trails .

Thanks for being so clear !

[Meadie]

Super simple. Nice one Bruce. I absolutely love the app (I downloaded it thanks to you). I’ve found so many fantastic roads in Kent I never knew existed.

[silewis]

These are great short help topics Bruce👍🏼 still struggle with volume on calimoto when riding, but sure that’s how I have phone, Packtalk & BMW connected

[curnobullen]

Cheers Bruce! I always struggled with this (it’s just me 🤦‍♂️). Will use the Simon Weir routes on this. Thank you 👍

[CRAZYLEGSONABIKE]

love doing this so I can put the route on my tom tom. great vlog bud

[mikecarpenter]

Appreciate your solid advice and clear presentations. I'm now thinking of moving from GARMIN to an alternative solution. Migrating my already planned trips looks like "a piece of cake" thanks to your preenations.

[graemegwallace]

Great tutorial. Is there a way to have a rout shared to the wider Calimoto user base. i.e. How could I ensure that you could see a route that ive made?

[TwoFourCharlie]

Great tutorial Bruce, Thanks for the advice😎

[mikecarpenter]

As a beginner, I have a basic question about On- and offline maps. What setting should I use when planning or travelling?

[paullaycock]

I have a Beeline device that I am very happy with however I am seeking a better way of planning routes and want to fry Calimoto. I have calimoto app on my phone as well as the beeline app. Is there a way of creating a gps file in the calimoto app then exporting it to beeline so it will display through the beeline device. Thanks Paul L

Hi - new to all this technology - how do you download a gpx file to a satnav (navigator 6) device from a pc? thanks bruce

[BiglumpADV]

I'd love to see a how to around route planning. Cover what you use to plan the route, basic do's and dont's kinds thing.

Hi Bruce . This weekend the good lady and I completed your Brighton ride you dud in Sept 2020 using your calimoto ride map and had a great day. As you have the Calimoto ear, is it possible to add or click a link to all your calimoto rides and follow them .. regards Dave

[donwalker]

Hi Bruce. Grate review. I’ve paid for calimoto app. Imported gpx but when I select start navigation it just keeps saying calculation error. 🤦🏼‍♂️

[robertcameron]

Teapot, I’ve just purchased Calimoto on my phone which already had Garmin Drive ( which I use to send routes to Garmin XT ). My question is, can I set a route on Calimoto and export it or share to Garmin Drive and then send to the XT. Regards.

Need some help with the transfer..

1. I designed the route in Calimoto.
2. I prefer a traditional GPS so I transferred GPX to Garmin basecamp which is so confusing and messes up the route/waypoints. Only way is to transfer and correct or manually add calimoto route in basecamp.

Is there a better way to transfer Calimoto GPX files to Garmin GPS?

[dirkjacobs]

Hello Bruce. I started to use Calimoto recently, which is indeed a great planning app, yet one thing that is fairly annoying is that when I import one of my existing routes I created with another app, Calimoto says 'some of your imported rides may have been re-calculated for an optimal user experience'. And it does indeed. Now I have been looking for the 'green line' you describe in your video, showing the original route, yet I do not see that green line on the desktop version (I do not use the mobile app). Has anything changed since posting this video?

[ianwilson]

Watcha Bruce. I can’t seem to save to favourites. Any tips? Cheers.
