Default Ride Planner Difficulties

I enjoy using the Harley Ride Planner but have a question:
Is there a way to substitute destination descriptions ie: steel 1, steel 2, steel 3. I want to use the destination name such as: Pilot Gas, Vendor Area, Natural Dam. As of now I have to carry a piece of paper with the description of the stop so that when I wish verify where we are going. The ride planner inserts the names properly however when its in the Ride Planner it defaults to the stop number. Any way to change that ?

I'm figuring that your talking about alternate names when looking at waypoints while on a route? Haven't done this in a while so.... things might have changed.

1- I save to my desktop with no alternate names to the waypoints, just mental or written notes of where each point is.
2- open the file in notes (or wordpad?) and find each point in the text.
3- change accordingly and save. When transferred to your bike and on the route you should see by name rather then point #'s

Good luck, hope it works for ya
