    GPS routes for NGC?

    I haven't yet seen anything about availability of GPS routes for the NGC. Will there be any? If there will, could they be made available this week to allow time to load them into a GPS unit and make sure that everything is working?

    Thanks, John

    I have all the routes from the 2011 NGC.
    They can be used again this year except we have a new motel as a start point.
    But I'm sure people can figure that out.

    If I have time I'll change them for the new motel location by the end of this week and give the link to Matt Thornton so people that have registered for the event will have access to the GPS routes.

    Really an outstanding job with the GPS routes and instructions! Including the actual tracks for comparison purposes was surely a lot of extra effort but seems like the answer to our chronic route distribution/map discrepancy problems.

    Fortunately, plenty of others to ride with!

    What a great weekend! Had a fun time with the three state route. The event had a great turnout, and the weather was perfect on Saturday - never above 75 degrees in the mountains. Thanks to everyone that planned the event and Doug for his GPS and maps!
