Hi Mark
Hello Mate,
Dont know if you already have one, but i cannot stress enough how good the tom tom rider is for this sort of trip. I used mine for Calais-Chamonix, through Germany, Switz, Italy, and although some die hards will say it takes some of the fun out of the trip, i can tell you now the time they save you is unreal. I did the trip last June, no motorways, planned the next days ride with a map picking out my route on the backroads, and never needed a map while on the road. If you need someone to help you with it, i'm in Romford and would be willing to show you how it all works. Also, if you bought one just for the trip, you can sell it on after and dont lose a great deal of money, I sold mine for £ 300.
Good luck, once youve ridden on the continent, you'll realise how crap it is here!!!!
