Since your working on the votes, a couple requests:
Can you make the "gesture" color for up/down vote match the color of the customized up/down color. I changed upvote to "green" and it looks funny to swipe and get the "red" gesture but then the "green".
In addition to coloring the arrow, can you color the vote number with the color too to make it stand out a bit more.
90% of the time it's just using the Connect Mobile app to sync rides.
Connect IQ is only needed if you want to add datafields or apps from the IQ store.
The web version of Connect is pretty good a creating routes.
Express is only needed to update maps.
I have never used Basecamp.
