    Hello, I have two questions and one complaint:

    1: When I import a *.GPX file from my Delorme topo program, it doesn't follow the roads. View this map as an example:  http://www.mapmyride.com/ride/united-states/oh/cincinnati/686323248

    2: When importing from a gmap-pedometer file, it doesn't give the miles. It says 0 for the mileage even though the route is correct.

    Complaint: This site is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay slow.

    Otherwise, I think this site has great potential.

    Mister-

    From the looks of your route, I'm guessing that the GPX file you exported contained waypoints rather than trackpoints.  How large is the GPX file you uploaded?  If it's very small can you copy/paste the contents of it into this thread so I can confirm this?

     As for "import from Gmap", thanks for pointing this out, it is a bug and I'll fix it today.

     For site speed issues, I recommend you take a look at this post.

    You're right about the gpx file. I looked. It's too much trouble to convert to a trackfile that I'll stick with the gmap import since you've fixed the bug.

    Thanks for the link to the other post about the speed. That should help.
