GPX data is also available as a download here, along with biker friendly accommodation recommendations along the route:
I needed to see why, on first upload, it only brought in points A (start) and (B) end, joining them up by the fastest roads available. This made resolving the problem impossible.
I also needed to find out if the simple instruction to ignore seasonal closures, did resolve the problem.

just as a point of interest the route from arsey differs from the route in post 22 from grumpysimes in about 15 places , now would these cause any grief, i do not know i would need to study it more, but the fact there are so many differences goes to show that it is always worth checking them to make shure they fit the bill. and of course both routes may be perfect and just different from each other.
Thank you, Lee.
I was going to compare them at some point.

I simply compiled mine by following a map I found online , which I can’t find now .

Arsey please dont think i was trying to pick fault with your route or indeed grumpysimes route, i was just trying to highlight the need to check things over before use, as i said both route may well be good to go.
No not at all . Didn’t think that at all .
I looked on MRA , thinking it would be in the route library but couldn’t find it . Was bored waiting in hospital for a medical procedure so it killed 30/45 minutes .

Looks like we’re sorted for June 2024 then.
Deutsche Alpenstrasse then Austrian Romantic Road , then back via Munich
, then Doc’s fav Black Forest hotel, Bouillon and home.
Nine ish nights and about 6/8 of us.
Wont be an open invite as , despite being such a cûnt, it seems everybody who came this year wants to come again plus a few more mates.

As an aside, my wife and me are in Austria now and did some of the Alpenstasse today. There are some roads near to it that you may want to detour on to, if you do, be sure to carry some cash with you. Some of them are private, toll roads and they operate on cash or Eurocheck cards. We didn’t have cash and our Visa cards were not recognised, so we had to go back to the nearest Geldautomat and get cash.
I love Held Gloves, Because they do them (some in their range) with short as well as long fingers. As I have long fingers, they do fit me like a glove...They equally do slim and fatty sized suits too.

Cash is dead in Europe. A bod on this forum who lives in France, assured us it was.
I’ve got some Deutschmarks left from my Berlin days . Should be fine

I’ll pool them with my French Francs and some stamps, the Italians used as change. We’ll be rich!
Mangetout!
Just a heads up for anyone using the Deutsche Alpenstrasse, looking on google there are certain parts of it blocked until august so take a look before you venture there, fore armed is fore warned.
