Cycling UK Forum

I use this to generate routes as gpx. Very useful app and quite intuitive. One can also add "points of interest" such as accommodation, campsites, cafes etc. The routes can also be saved in a various other formats other than gpx.

The link from the ADFC website only has a PNG or similar, but could use Print to File on your printer options to turn it in to a PDF. Stanford's Travel Bookshop in Covent Garden have them. They have a webshop, but it may take some trawling - they have over 450 cycling maps for Germany listed. Thank...

As does the Map Shop: https://www.themapshop.co.uk/acatalog/ADFC-150k-Cycle-Maps---Available-for-the-whole-of-Germany.html https://www.themapshop.co.uk/images/germany/adfc.jpg (Superb service.) Jonathan Exactly what I was after Jonathan. Cheers. Just needed a general overview to determine what maps...

I just watch PMQ's; seems to have the same effect.

Never seem to get mine either, even though I am, as others signed up for such.

There is an interesting section in Adventure Cycle-Touring Handbook: Worldwide Cycling Route & Planning Guide ( Stephen Lord ) Concerning the "conversion" of a steel mountain bike to use as a tourer. I don't have my copy to hand at the moment so can't provide ISBN. But have a search on...

Sorry for the double post yet again I was endeavouring to correct a typo. I am starting to think it's an age thing.

Went to the local COOP last week for some essentials and their were a group of yoofs having there names and addresses taken by the local plod. One saving grace I suppose, is that they were all on bicycles. By all accounts, a local builder was charged with assault for battering another yoof in said s...
