tried to follow what this guy was doing, and it seemed to work okay but for some slight variances, but the big thing that i notice that after selecting my start and end points, and letting garmin create my route, it just did a beeline from point a to point b (as the crow flies...)  i tried to use the insert tool to edit the route as he did, but seems like basecamp doesn't necessarily want to keep me  on the road.  whats up with this?  obviously, I'm doing something wrong, and i do have basecamp set for motorcycling....

attached is a pic to illustrate what i mean.
After the debacle of updating the Zumo RT 660 with the 2015 map update and then blowing up BaseCamp I had to re-install BaseCamp and it is a newer version than what I had previously.  So maybe the following are errors in the latest version:

1.  After I made a route and then added a service station as a waypoint for a refueling point / rest stop the route recalculated and took a slightly different route for a part of it.  The service station waypoint was directly on the original route so there was no change other than to add the stop.

2.  When I selected the 'undo' tool (the counterclockwise arrow) so I could go back to the original route before I added the service station waypoint instead of seeing the previous route I got a direct route (as ekim60 posted about) between all the various waypoints along the route - not on any roads just point-to-point as the crow flies.

Man these folks at Garmin sure can try one's patience!

i'm on shifts right now so i don't have a lot of time to spend on this issue but it seems that the map in the garmin is not routable and i have to download another map.  don't have the internal memory for it so i need to get an 8 gig sd card.
