trip planning software question

[Minnesota Dick]

I am wondering what is the sortware that the people on Trike Talk are using for their trip planing?

I have been using TYRE for a couple years now. It is real user friendly and combines most if not all the tricks the others use. Here is their link. Download Tyre - make your own touristic routes

I use Mapquest which came with my Zumo 550, I also spend a good amount of time with Google doing research for things to see and do.

I usually plot my routes on Microsoft Street & Trips. Then follow that route on my Tom Tom GPS. All subject to change if another road looks interesting. Or trying to avoid bad weather.

I'm not saying what you guys are using are not good programs but you really ought to give Tyre a look-see. I've used both of your programs (still have Streets & Maps on my computer) but this Tyre is really neat. You can down load the routes directly into any Garmin or Tom Tom GPS that has the computer hook up capability.

FYI, that program is not compatible with Macs.

Sorry..... I should have mentioned that. A friend of mine has a Mac and we've tried everything he knows to get it to work. NO GO....

Maybe some day though....

I use Garmin's Mapsource and then download to GPS unit I use on the bikes.

For my Nuvi ,which is what I use for the auto is not directly programmable, I use MapQuest, Honda trip planning, or Mapsource and then put in via points and destination to create a route.
