Rookie Route Gadget Question:
Once drawing and saving my route, the program displays the pixel total based on what I entered.  How do I relate this pixel total to "true distance" travelled?  A standard multiplier based on the map scale?
Thanks-

While your answering the above question, is there a way of having a GPS track calculated in pixels or K on route gadget? I will admit that my watch does K and miles on it's own, but it would be nice to compare my routes with other competitors on RG

Interesting questions.  Since I don't know the answers, I'll see what I can find out for you.
