    If your still in the dark ages or a bit of a retro wannabe like me... you may still use a thing called a map when your out and about or on tour! (these things never loose their location, signal or battery power)

    ive tried and tested these handy ring bound a5 maps in france a few times (borrowed off a mate) and find them fantastic. Basically they highlight all the recommended / scenic routes for BIKERS... very handy when putting tours together and deciding the best routes….you’ll find roads on here you’d never get to being guided by a robot! lol

    Just bought the UK and France one for some inspirations for my 4 dayer in May but thought i'd share the link with you lot.

    The Best Rides - Together and Save - The Best Rides Motorcycle Atlases - Search by Publisher - Online Store - Motorcycle Map, Michelin Maps, Motorcycle Tours, Motorcycle Touring, Motorbike Rides, Motorcycle Atlas, Motorbike Routes

    some great other map deals etc on the site too....

    Motorcycle Map, Michelin Maps, Motorcycle Tours, Motorcycle Touring, Motorbike Rides, Motorcycle Atlas, Motorbike Routes

    Sure you could even use them to plot routes in your sat navs so def worth a look!

    Yep, got the 'Best Rides' book myself for France, waterproof and tearproof, and as Jimbo mentioned good for plotting routes into Satnav.

    Just received the UK + France combo, and am impressed with them based off looking up routes I already know are good!

    Will look forward to trying out all the other ones, particularly in La Belle France (haven't got a Euro trip booked this year yet but getting the urge to get something sorted now!)
