NOTIFICATION – NAVIGATION OVERVIEW & RBR APP TRAINING
Hi guys, here’s some info to help you prepare for navigation on the upcoming Rampage event. If you’re new to RBR Roadbook & GPX navigation (Android only), this will guide you through the basics.
The RBR app is only available on Android, not Apple. Apple cannot do what Android does, sorry.
Here is the shortcut to the app on Android Play Store:

HOW NAVIGATION WORKS ON THE ODC
For this event, we are using the RBR pin method, meaning you will receive a PIN on WhatsApp that you enter on RBR app to quickly download your chosen route.
👉 On event day, simply open the RBR event, enter the PIN (if you haven’t already), and you’ll be ready to navigate in seconds. It’s that easy. No gpx file sharing or complexities.
TRY A SAMPLE NAVIGATION ROUTE NOW
To get familiar with RBR, you can load these sample routes. These are demos – do NOT attempt to ride them.
📌 GPX Track Example (Adventure Route)
PIN: N9XD
• Load in GPX mode to see how a track looks in RBR.
– Important: GPX routes are start-point dependent, meaning in a demo you will need to manually zoom out and find the track. On event day, your device will center and follow you automatically.
📌 Roadbook Example
PIN: 4G41
– Loads a sample roadbook in RBR.
– Features like CAP Heading and Speed will only work when riding.
– Use the Roadbook Cheat Sheet (attached screenshots) to learn the shortcuts.
