Attending an event with Roadbook Tours to ride?

How does this work??

So you are attending an event where Northwest Roadbooks is providing Roadbook Tours. How does it work? What do you do to get started? How do you follow the Roadbook Tour? We want to answer those questions for you. Read on to get the skinny.

How do I get the Roadbook Tour for the event?

First, get yourself and your bike Rally Ready. Get the TerraPirata Rally Roadbooks app on your device ahead of time. Get one of the FREE Roadbook Tours available on the Northwest Roadbooks website and load it up on your device. Mount and power your device on your bike. Go out and ride it. Make adjustments to your setup based on what you learned on your test ride.

Now you are Rally Ready!

Once you arrive at the event, look for Northwest Roadbooks Staff wherever the organizer is sharing the gpx files for GPS units and other route information. We will have a sheet posted with a QR code link to the Event Sign-up Sheet. Scan it with your device and fill out the form with your info including your name and TP username. If you have a F2R Y1000, we will need its device ID.

For some events, we may have a link to the sign up sheet on the Event Page on our Northwest Roadbooks website. Take a look and you may be able to get it sorted out and save yourself some time.

We will use this info to get you access to the event Roadbook Tours. It will take us a minute to get this sorted out. It is a manual process so give us a few minutes. Once we get the info entered into the TP Roadbook Delivery System, the Roadbook Tours related to the event will show up in your list on TP.

I have the Roadbook Tour. Now what?

Now that you have the event Roadbook Tour on your device, all you have to do is open it up, head for the start point and begin following the route. The first note will be a WPE that will guide you to the starting location. Take a look at the Basic Roadbook Navigation Blog post for more wisdom about how to follow the Roadbook Tour.

Have fun out there!!
