This page is created for sharing my routes from travelling around the world. Choose cateogry (e.g. Motorcycle) and zoom out to find my routes. They can be viewed in the interactive map or downloaded. Individual routes cannot be shared without user login (free). The example below illustrates this. I hope for the future that MRA Routeplanner will allow sharing without user registration. For now, I export most of my maps to Google My Maps. I cannot provide a link for all, only individual ones, like the example below.
