Oxon Hill Bicycle and Trail Club

OHBTC’s Ride With GPS club account is at

https://ridewithgps.com/clubs/298-oxon-hill-bicycle-and-trail-club.

OHBTC club members can join the club account free
and

take advantage of the paid features unlocked for
all routes in the club route library.

With the

RWGPS app on your smartphone, you can have

offline maps and turn by turn

voice navigation on club routes.

The Club
Route Library is at

https://ridewithgps.com/clubs/298-oxon-hill-bicycle-and-trail-club/routes.
The club has several route managers who have been adding
their routes to

the library

The routes can be sorted and/or
filtered by route name, tag, location, distance, elevation
and creation date. Clicking on a route takes you to
the route map, cue sheet and GPS files, which can be
downloaded to a Garmin unit. OHBTC is following a naming
convention of using the first two initials of the start
location, the distance and destination as the route
name, e.g.,

BR 44 Riverside is a 44-mile route from Bryans Road
Shopping Center to Riverside.

Log your miles in 2020 and watch the miles add up, whether
100 miles on a century, 30 miles on a club ride, 10
miles on a trail, or 1 mile to the store. Some people
pencil their miles into a paper log, some enter them
into a computer spreadsheet, and others track their
miles on a website such as

ridewithgps.com.

• Download
  a 2020 Bicycling Log in PDF format you can print,
  stick on your refrigerator, enter your miles with
  pen or pencil, and manually tally your weekly and
  cumulative miles
• Download
  an Excel spreadsheet version that does automatic
  summation of your miles showing your weekly miles
  and your cumulative miles for 2020
• Use a web site to log your miles
• These sites let you
  manually enter your rides or upload your rides from
  a GPS device or smartphone app. 

  Enter your rides on one site and sync it to other
  sites with
  
  Tapiriik.      

The National Bike Challenge encourages cyclists
to ride more. Cyclists earn a point for each mile and
20 points for each day they ride. Enter your rides in
Strava and have them automatically appear on the National
Bike Challenge.

Join the 2018 OHBIKE Challenge
at

https://www.endomondo.com/challenges/26435638 and
let’s see how many miles club members can log during
2018.

Using www.ridewithgps.com,
you can make cue sheets for rides. The RideWithGPS cue
sheets have turn symbols and extra words that make the
cue sheet more difficult to read than the simple format
used for most OHBTC cue sheets.

Ride leaders usually manually cut and paste a RideWithGPS
cue sheet to format it into a simpler format. Now, there
is a “bookmarklet” that can be used to make
a cue sheet in the OHBTC  format if you are viewing
a RideWithGPS route.  To install the “bookmarklet,”
go to ../cuesheet_maker.html
and drag the link for the “Cuesheet Maker”
to your browser’s bookmark bar.

Whenever you are viewing a RideWithGPS route, you can
click on “Cuesheet Maker” button on your bookmark
bar to create a cue sheet.   For an illustration
of the process, see
../cuesheet_maker.pdf. NOTE: You must be viewing
the route in the “Classic Mode” view and not the “Beta
Mode.” You can switch from Beta Mode to Classic Mode
by clicking “More”  V “View in Classic
Mode.”

An alternative to using “Cuesheet
Maker” is using URL https://ohbike.org/cuesheet.php?route=”route
number”; for example

https://ohbike.org/cuesheet.php?route=19409400
