Ride The Divide Files

These are the files that I created before Riding The Divide. With the exception of the Garmin files, they are just for personal planning and were not intended to be distributed to others. Therefore, they may not be the presentation quality that you may be used to. Feel free to change them to suite your own needs.

Garmin Data File

While riding the route, I marked
each of the passes except the unmarked one. These waypoints should be within a few feet of the actual markers.

You will need
Mapsource V6.0 or higher to
modify this file. You can
download free updates at
Garmin's web site.

Microsoft Streets & Trips

This is the file that I used to plan
the trip. Note that the numbers of
the waypoints will not coincide
with those now in the Garmin files.

You will need S&T 2006

Excel

I plan my trips with Excel so that
I know how many miles I need to
do each day; a way of budgeting
time. There is one tab for the full
route and then a separate tab for
each day. I also pasted in Streets & Trips maps for each day. Each waypoint is numbered and should
agree with the numbers on the
maps.

I print out the day pages and put them in the map window of my tank bag.

This is a standard XLS file.
