ACA Mobile Route Apps / Distance between two points not working....
« on: December 05, 2020, 09:15:09 am »
I've had this problem on the Arkansas High Country Route Northern Section since the new version of the app was released several months ago. 

For instance, on that route, if you try to calculate the distance between Fayetteville and Seligman in a clockwise direction, the app will incorrectly show you the direction going in a counter clockwise direction.  The opposite occurs if you try to go counterclockwise.  In other places on the map, however, the functionality seems to work.  Makes the functionality pretty useless. 

As far as I can tell, the problem seems to more prevalent when there are intersecting loop routes in the map set loaded. 

Any ideas?

Does anyone know why the alternate route just south of Swan Lake exists?  I have purchased the app based maps, they don't really indicate why a particular alternate route exists.  I've been able to figure out most of the others, but this one is elusive.

Thanks in advance!

My wife and I are riding the western half of the Trans-AM this summer on our coupled tandem.  We will be flying into Pueblo, and finishing in Portland, and the one logistic problem I'm having trouble getting a handle on is what to do with our bike bags (other than shipping them home and having them shipped to us in Portland when we finish). 

Ideally, I would like to ship them directly to Portland so they will be waiting for us there so we can check the bike as luggage on the flight home versus boxing and shipping it.  Unfortunately, the bike hostels and cycling friendly hotels I've contacted cannot accommodate holding our bags for our arrival. 

I'm wondering if someone out there has found a solution to this in the Portland area and could pass that information along?

Worst case, we could either double ship the travel cases or have the tandem boxed and shipped home, but both of those are a bit more expensive than being able to fly with it as standard luggage.

Thanks in advance, and I'm hoping we can meet on the road!
