Hey Gert,


from my own travelling through Africa I realised the leak of an
exchange stock for such data, so I implemented something I guess it will
work. Have a look: Routes, overnight places, accomodations, embassies, country details



This site has many more options than just sharing GPS-data for overland
travellers. For instance it is possible to get a roadbook with an allways up to date map-window and clickable markers generated out
of the database entries. Have a look: Routes, overnight places, accomodations, embassies, country details



If you like to share your data, it is very easy to feed the database.
Just send the .gpx file to newroute@traveller-tracks.com or
newpoi@traveller-tracks.com and that it was. Use your emailaddress which
you used for registering at Traveller-Tracks. If you do not like to
register, send the data directly to me (admin(at)traveller-tracks.com) and I will publish them under
your name with links to your homepage.



Looking forward to hear from you



Cheers Peter

Hi, I'm going to go down West Africa in March 2010 and would sure appreciate those waypoints.
My eMail is eljuliano at gmail . com

Have you thought of uploading them to a filesharing service like drop.io or mediafire.com? I have some webspace I could put them on too. You wouldn't have to eMail them every time.

Anyway, thanks a lot, Julian

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
