I get "Chasing ...............................itn" is not a valid Mapsource file and could not be opened.
As I have grown older, I've learned that pleasing everybody is impossible, but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.

OK Tom if you are downloading the .itn, that is for Tomtom for Garmin you need the .gpx file
The .gpx link is in the Wrinklies thread post #1

Which link are you clicking on and what happens when you do?

I made sure I was logged out of all of my Google accounts so just logging in as a regular Joe.
I see a mainly dark screen with a box in the middle saying No Preview Available and a Download Button.
Are you not seeing this?

yep, thats what I get rae and I dont have anything that can open the files but I can still just download it to MY Download folder. Im using Chrome by the way, different browsers may handle it differently
Isnt it Ironic, no its a BMW what dya expect.

I have downloaded both files using Chrome and IE and both files open ok with ITN Converter and Tyre.
If you are having trouble downloading or opening these files please give me as much information as you can.

The .gpx has downloaded to Mapsource but there are straight lines between waypoints.

If I go into route properties and recalculate then I get a route with my preferencies applied.

The GPX file but I havent got any mapping software Rae, I dont bother, I was just downloading it to confirm it worked for you. I use sat nav for work occasionally and thats about it. I may buy the new Tom Tom rider in the future but again generally all I want to do is put a postcode in and go.
