I'm doing an audax on sunday and the organiser has sent out the following data for a "GPS route"

[url] http://www.highergrangefarm.fsnet.co.uk/PeakAudax/routes/eurk1E.gpx [/url]

I thought u could paste this into a text file, change the file extension to GPX and open it as normal with any mapping software, but this doesn't work in either Garmin mapsource or tracklogs.

Any ideas?

Cheers

PL

how wierd, is the following the correct way to do it?

"paste this into a text file, change the file extension to GPX and open it as normal with any mapping software, but this doesn't work in either Garmin mapsource or tracklogs."

I get an error message saying it's not a valid mapsource file.
