Create route from recorded ride
Quote from Du2tri on 30.07.2020, 16:02Hello
I recorded a ride recently using Scenic and when I went to Create Route From Ride option the new route is off course from what I had originally rode.
As you can see in one image with the green “tracks” shows the route I rode
The only turn that I did was to go South after going East
The other image is route that got created
The circled section area is where this newly created route deviated from what I rode
Between points 1 & 2 the route has me going a different direction than what I rode
As you can see the blue tracks shows my route
I even tried exporting the ride I recorded to GPX and then importing it and it did the same thing
Do you know what might be happening?
I can email you the exported ride if that would make it easier to troubleshoot Just let me know what your email is
Thanks for the help

Try removing it (tap on it and then tap delete button in bubble that appears), or moving it a bit backwards.
Scenic is very sensitive to where via points are placed, even the side of the road can be important. Especially if a via point is on a junction this can sometimes lead to strange loops. There is always a bit of inaccuracy in GPS position so this can also happen for recorded rides. For more information and how to resolve these loops have a look here: https://scenic.app/knowledge-base/strange-loops-while-importing/
For Scenic 3 (next motorcycle season), I'm switching to a new map provider who is smarter / less sensitive about this.
