Hey Paul, I can't open that in Mapsource, it gives an error saying"City Navigator Europe v9 not intsalled".
I have never seen this before and my MS is right up to date - any ideas?

Would love to come along if I'm back from a business trip. Would be good to meet some of you guys 
Hi Rob,
not a clue, anyone else having this problem, I am using v9 city navigator, and the latest garmin software downloaded last week.
Nobby, any luck with your route planning.
It did that on mine too. I just clicked ok and it opened anyhow.
HI Adam, some nice routes there, thanks for preparing them, I am hoping to be fit enough to make the run. A question for the more informed than I, is Mapsource proprietary to a particular Nav system, I have a Tom Tom 720 which I use and would like to upload these routes using TT Home? Does anyone know how to do this, does the map have to be converted to a different format?

Mapsource is for the Garmin product line, mine came with my Zumo.
It does support some native file formats but it won't work directly with the Tomtom units, I recall once seeing a converter somewhere on the web.
Maybe worth doing a Google on using Mapsource with Tomtom but is isn't going to be easy.
Not used it myself but this works apparently:

Farewell to the Summer Run, Starting and ending at Brampton Hut, Sunday 5th October.
For those with Garmin you can view the route. I'm not great with Mapsource but I think the Route is 'interesting'
There's a stop a Grafham Water for fag and tea. Another at Webbs bike shop in Eye for the same. Total miles is 125 ish, so with stops, chatting and a coffee at start / finish, it should fill a morning (4/5 hours).
May I suggest a start at 10-00am? I'm happy to lead with Paul as TEC if still offered
Thoughts and numbers would be helpfull, have we got 6 or 26
Shit, can't see how to upload the route, help required !!

Hi all,
I live in Whipsnade and you are around my way.........can I come ??
Ian
Of course... all will be welcome.
Had a nice spin out to the coast for breakfast yesterday. We had a great time in fantastic weather. No GPS, no maps, no 70 odd posts, just two phone calls, an hour and a half of twisty back lanes through GS country to get there and a progressive hour back.

Sounds fine to me, count me in

When you write out a reply, hit the manage attachments, if the map is stored in My garmin, or garmin, locate it upload it from there,
A tip, just have the map on a separte listing, not with lots all together.
Hope that helps,
Nobbyk

Doh, same as BO then, what a plumb
Done
It seems a little messy but it works. Part of the route is repeated, but the road is comnpletely different when reversed, trust me!!
Brampton start and finish.
Head count appears to be:

Rob k
Dave 56
Budweiser (possible)
GS Whipsnade
Any more?
