If you miss the official start time, please be on the course no later then 1 hour after the start of your route.

The routes for the Ride for Autism have been established on a site that can be downloaded to a GPS. The site was established for the Garmin 305, but others may be used if compatible with the formats. Read the site information before attempting to download, as we are not responsible for the site actions or limitations. The site also generates a cue sheet, but they are not to be used as the final. The cue sheets we provide have been used for a number of rides and we are confident they are correct.

Note that ONLY the routes are on the mapping. Rest stops are NOT included and must be visually acquired by the rider. The site maps roads, not paths, etc. So it is the riders' responsibility to watch for the rest stop signs/directions.

Using the GPS is the riders' option; the course markings and cue sheets are the "tried and true" method. Not following the road markings and cue sheets could lead to being off the course.

A hint to downloading. When you download the site gives an option of establishing a warning BEFORE a turn and you have the option of the amount of distance prior. We suggest using at least 500 feet, as a shorter warning may not give enough time to check road and traffic conditions. When downloading to Garmin 305 use the "tcx" option.

Make sure you battery is FULLY charged before the ride, especially for the longer routes, you wouldn't want it to expire before the end, although the finishing miles will be more populated with riders and you still have road markings/cue sheets..

This is the first time we have used the GPS routing, so if you use it, we would appreciate feedback, so we can improve.
