I tripped over this website when following a link within the latest magazine.

https://www.motorrad-magazin.at/downloads

It translates OK into English, using Safari’s quick translation function.

Obviously you’d need to get from home to the ‘weekend tours’ and back again, but it might be worth bods tapping around in the website and maybe downloading a route or two, if something catches their eye.

Here’s a basic sample:

The GPX file downloads well. Here is the same route, displayed in Pocket Earth Pro on my iPad:

Similarly, the Google Maps’ version is OK, too:

Tap around, you can’t break it.


PS The German motorcycle magazines are still streets ahead of anything that is produced in the UK. RiDE magazine had a go at improving under the stewardship of Simon Wier but has gone backwards since he left to do his own thing.

Wier now has his own website, giving ideas for jaunts and tours. That too is worth a surf around in. If nothing else, at least it’s not in foreign.
