**Wales 2013 weekend drives - ROUTES NOW SENT**

[Ebized]

Is that the Country Cooks side of your house or the other way?

 

Country Cooks side Graham, as you come down the hill (going east) before Chris's place and its very easy to slip over the limit there.

[ChrisS]

200 yards up the road from mine. They get people going down the long down hill straight from CC towards mine.

They sometimes get the double whammy, speeding and overtaking on double white lines.

[JetSet]

And that does not show the infamous mobile camera van location on the A5 that parks in the wall recess on the west side or Corwen before the 30 limit changes to a 60

Not tempting fate but it looks like they've moved that one to the other side of Llangollen, it now looks to be on the road up to the Horseshoe Pass. Of course, the police are under no obligation to reveal where they set up shop for the day but I do believe that the list is fairly accurate.

Huge thanks to wizard to setting up those tom tom files- loading all those routes took me less than a minute.

 

For all those that are not sure how to upload them:

 

1) Connect the tomtom to your pc

2) Copy the 3 files from your pc to the itn folder in the tomtom

3) In the tomtom go to itinerary planning, the 3 routes will be there to select.

 

Jobs a good en.

 

Will put them in the connect premium now just in case. That may take a little longer.

 

Wizard - quick question how did you generate the itn files in the first place?

[The Bounty Bar Kid]

Will, pm me your e-mail address and I can send you the CSV files if you're still OK to test them on the Nissan connect sat nav.

If anybody could print me the maps I would appreciate it, I've just got back from holiday and doubt I'll have time to wash the car let alone find a printer.

Got it. Pm me your email address and I'll send it to you.

[ioneabee]

do you mean connect premium

[The Bounty Bar Kid]

do you mean connect premium

 

Will couldn't try it. Probably easier if I take my laptop with me and then we can try it on yours there if you want. Would be easier for you???

[ioneabee]

ok - no probs - we'll give it a go

[HaydnH]

Does anyone know if the GPS directions provided work easily in Birdview?

I believe your sat nav is the same as I have in the 370 (before the Connect Premium came out) and it has always worked fine for me

Thanks, shame you can't just upload the route to it... it's going to be painful adding the roads 1 by 1.

I might be able to do that. Just waiting to get hold of someone with a connect system. ionabee has volunteered, but if I meet someone before I meet him, I could try it on their's.

I wasn't talking about connect, it's Birdview I have.. don't confuse me I've just spent 6 hours detailing.

[spursmaddave]

I have been to Wales twice and never uploaded the routes

 

I will print them off just in case though

[Will370z]

Some won't know the roads though dave and for many the roads will be new. To avoid people getting lost or separated we want everyone to upload the routes or at least know the way/meet points.

Is there an abridged version of the routes that just contains the meeting points? Personally I can find my own roads to drive around if I get lost and meet up later at X time at Y place if needed...not that I'm expecting to get lost... unless I'm following the same guys as last year.

Well my sat nav just got thrown out the window, major hissy fit, just ask the +1 lol!

 

I'm be using the print outs
