@Carl-Taylor-0 said in Rotterdam to Switzerland: Hello Andre, Thank you for the your reply. Yes you're absolutely right, I've never visited the Alps previously at all. I'm very much looking forward to the challenge. Perhaps I'm overthinking things, but wondering what alternative routes might be available. The one proposed by @Yarro-Moto has to be the frontrunner, but I would like to visit The Eagle's Nest, if time allows. I'm 64 this May, had a bike since I was 17 so relatively experienced - if you would like to take a look at YouTube for the 'Applecross Pass' in Scotland, these hairpins havent presented a problem, though I'm aware Stelvio has quite a few more of them! I acknowledge your comments about the number of bikes likely to be on the passes at that time of year, unfortunately though thats the only time I have available off work & conscious I'm not getting any younger, so I'll have to go with the flow! regards Carl What you are most likely not prepared to, is reckless driving (mostly of italian riders^^) and lack of being able to ride those roads by 90% of the rest of traffic. Be preepared to not having fun... If you want to go, go early or late in the day. I understand your desire, but don´t do it in high season. Just my 2 cents.^^

@Tony-13 said in IRAN planning problems: tried it on my Web browser, Firefox and all seemed to work OK. Weypoints in sensible places and route line followed the road. But only when using OSM, which aligns with Google satelite. HERE and Tom Tom looked useless. The HERE route does go through the airport, but not on the line shown in your screen shot so considering that I have to create tracks that will have to run on the garmin XT.... what should I do? how should I set up myroute? thank you for your help

@Bianca-13 in mei ga ik met een club van een man of 15 naar Gus, nu al zin in

@Rob-Veerman not good

There are some lovely bits of France with some really nice roads but, for me, you need to get close to the Pyrenees or, better still, the Alps, to get the really stunning scenery that's around virtually every corner, and the breath-taking roads that can be ridden fast, slow or anywhere in between, and still be hugely enjoyable. Having spend many trips exploring bits of France north of Paris, I came to the conclusion that, if you're into WW1 and WW2 history then it's a great place to go but if you want breath-taking scenery then get on the autoroute for a day and get to the Alps. From there ride the Route des Grandes Alpes and the route Napoleon. Visit the Gorge du Verdon and the Combe Laval balcony road.

@Captain-Haddock In your first response to the original poster, you suggest using the Compare tool, not sure why you would suggest this rather than just confirming that they are planning on the TomTom planning map. If the TT map is used, whatever route is drawn and calculated in the route planner will be navigated by the TomTom device, no need to Compare with HERE or OSM. And then in your reply to @Marinus-van-Deudekom you talk about if the original poster does not have a Gold subscription they should use the Compare tool, hence my reply to you!

@Nick-Carthew Many thanks! I am definitely going to thoroughly review these tips and route options and possibly adjust my route accordingly.

@Con-Hennekens Thank you both. I'll give that a try. Shame that I will lose waypoints as I would have loved to be able to keep notes, but I can live with that.

The Old Gits have stayed at both these places: http://www.hotelcortinadampezzo.com/en/ https://www.ladymariahotel.com/en/ Both were good and offered great locations to explore the local routes. I look forward to goimg back to both. I have routes for the local ares around both hotels if you wanted them for reference.

@Hans-van-de-Ven-MR-MRA Maybe I have to be more clear, these are passes that can be driven with a motor vehicle. And to be honest, it makes the system slow to load all the mountain passes that exist in the world, and I have to zoom all the way in. Also I wanted the height of the pass in the POI. It was also a nice exercise to dust off my Excel to GPX POI converter.

@Mike-6m said in Track and routes: @Stanisław thanks, but how can import screenshot in this reply? Using my Samsung galaxy . In the top I see a photo, but when I click on that I get  [ALT TEXT] (IMAGE URL) @Mike-6m Sorry, I use a computer to read this forum and post to it.

@Con-Hennekens Hello Con thanks for your message. i have tested this and is work

Thanks Kenny much appreciated Paul

@Henk-Hassing, het lange antwoord hierop is als volgt: HERE werkt met vaarschema's voor veerboten. Maar de meeste binnenlandse veerpontjes hebben helemaal geen vaarschema, die varen gewoon op en neer. In de data van HERE uit zich dat naar een standaard vaartijd van 30 minuten (proefondervindelijk vastgesteld bij een reeks maas- en rijnpontjes). Snelste routes gaan daarom altijd om de pontjes heen, omdat een alternatieve route sneller is. Als je de route-optimalisatie op kortste zet, is de vaartijd geen factor. Als je dan de vormingspuntjes op de oevers zet, zie je altijd een vaartijd van 30 minuten, tussen die punten.

@Ralph-Janssen, als ik ooit ga verhuizen denk ik er sterk over om dat naar bijvoorbeeld Luxemburg te doen. Dan zit je nóg korter bij het leuke rijden

@Herko-ter-Horst bedankt voor de tip.
