Yesterday i got back from a 7 day trip including the NC500 All planned as 7 different day routes using MyRoute App.
i am a gold subscriber and its the first time ive used it to plan a route.
I had a nightmare!
The scenic trip up ended up as a fastest route on A roads, and coming back i completely had the Cairngorms bypassed and saw nothing!
luckily the NC500 is now clearly signposted, so that part was ok.
On the NAV6 i tried routes and Tracks neither worked.
one just did straight lines ignoring roads completely, and the other completely ignores your route and calculated the fasted way to the destination.
Even before you set off, if you click map and zoom out you can see its using all the fastest roads!
We camped on the last day in Lauder which is about 20 miles SE of Edinburgh, it was a nice night weather wise, so i used the trip planner on the NAV6 itself to plan a trip home through Northumberland National Park, Kielder forest, the Pennines and Yorkshire dales.
it worked flawlessly and it was a really pleasant ride and we stopped off for a pub lunch near Hawes.
I have no idea what happened with my trips not working, and because i had no back up it ruined at least 2 days.
i will create some smaller routes locally and try again
