[BaseCamp] Verify My Sanity (BC Feature Confirmation...)

[Chris Rasmussen]

This is why I keep a separate list of arrival/departure times and route point to point  Really only important during rallying.  If your just going somewhere your either gonna be early or late,  Doesn't really matter so long as you get there.  If you have a deadline, the ETA will show you if you have time to stop.  ETA says 10:00am and you don't need to be there until 11:00 you have some time to kill.  If it says ETA 11:00 and you are supposed to be there at 10:00 you best not dilly dally and once in motion, twist the wrist.  

For Rallies, a SECOND GPS set to the Checkpoint lets you know if your early or late.

M2C, YMMV.

I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move.

Ken .. " If your 10 minute planned stop turns into an 8 minute stop, you just happen to be 2 minutes ahead at this stage of the trip..." ... hehheh yes and no. At that point I might well be 2 minutes ahead of whatever overall ETA Basecamp had told me when it was accounting for layovers, but now I'd be 8 minutes BEHIND what my particular GPS thinks my ETA should be. And since my GPS ETA is the one I see for, say,1,000 miles on the motorcycle during an Iron Butt Saddle Sore, with each and every stop I get further and further "behind" schedule. Then have to mentally kick myself and remind myself that it will all work out fine because I accounted for all that during planning in Basecamp. :P
