By the way...how many sales have you had in the UK..? I'm doing my bit for the eastern counties, but we could do with a few more Brits adding their routes nearby for me to try

In honour of the Isle of Man TT race going on this weekend, I've added that route into the Greatest Road app. You can do a Find from the list view (tap the top right icon in the map to get to the list view) for Isle of Man to get to it. Comments welcomed.

We've just submitted version 1.4 to the App Store. It should take about a week to get through. This one is more about several small features, tweaks and bug fixes rather than larger feature additions. What's new:

-> Community Flagging: flag any stretch when it is a duplicate or not good enough. Contributor is alerted when stretch deleted

-> Sorting: sort stretches by length, overall rating, or other factors. Minor adjustments to behavior

-> Miles/Km: display distances correctly depending on country. All distances should now be correct.

-> Improved network handling
-> Fixed some text entry problems
-> Improved translations
-> Fixed various annoying little bugs
-> Celebrated having over 2000 routes listed

Hi all,

Just wanted to give you a heads up that I will be at the BMW MOA Rally this weekend, specifically Friday, Saturday and part of Sunday. I'm always interested in speaking with current or prospective customers and with others who have an interest in how to use mobile phones to make our motorcycling experience better in one way or another.

So please, drop me a line if you're there.

Ok...good thread, cool idea, and want to support sponsors of forum, so I'll give it a shot. My one. Walk in concern is that frequently when I need something like this, I'm in the twisties where the connection to my iPhone is weak.... But let's give it a shot.

Thanks, RRrider. I'll generally use it to plan a route for the day/morning, and pull it out if I'm a lunch or if I've finished a section with several upcoming options. In case it isn't clear, you can export any ride as a gpx and load it into your Zumo, Garmin, etc.

I am downloading it for my IPad. Thanks for the heads up.
