Itinerary planning About Itineraries An Itinerary is a plan for a journey including more locations than your final destination. You could use an Itinerary for trips such as: A riding holiday through a country with lots of stops. A two day bike ride with an overnight stop. A short ride which passes by Points of Interest.

Your TomTom Rider calculates the remaining distance and time to the first destination and not for the whole Itinerary. As soon as you start to use an Itinerary, the route is calculated from your current position. When you have passed a waypoint or reached a destination, it is marked as visited. Waypoints are shown on the map.

Recording your route About recording your route There are several reasons why you may want to record a route.

When the recording of a route stops, two files are created. The first file is a GPX file that holds very detailed information and can be viewed with software such as Google Earth.
Uploading and sharing routes Installing Tyre Tyre, a tool for managing routes, has been included with your TomTom Rider. Tyre enables you to search, design and edit routes, send them to your device and share them with other riders. To install Tyre, do the following: 1.

Follow these steps: Open your Internet Explorer. Select Tools > Internet Options > Advanced tab > Restore Advanced Settings. Restart Tyre and your Internet Explorer.
Using manual conversion 1. Connect your TomTom Rider to your computer. 2. Place your GPX files in the GPX2ITN folder on your device. 3. Disconnect your device from the computer. 4.
