No worries. 

 

Myself and  Gary are on Garmin and we have most of the routes programmed in.

 

would have shared.

Which Garmin do you have ? Might be worth buying one

i have a garmin,  and tomtom, was going to take tomtom as garmin is for the motorhome and its a 7 inch screen,  does anyone have a detailed route ? 

[Ali and Gail]

Gary and Geoffrey do I believe, were just going to follow. I think one them is going to be at the front and the other as tail gunner to keep us all together.

 

Ive put the hotel addresses on my TomTom already so worst case and we get split we will just head there.

I put them onto a micro sd card for Geoffrey when we met on Friday morning 

it takes a couple of minutes, but don’t know if the card would work in a Tom Tom 

there are still a couple of routes to physically put in as they won’t store the route due to some passes only opening now

Myself, Gary and Trina have booked tickets on this.

The Gelmerbahn Funicular.

We will go to this, the one like a wooden train and the open topped cable car throughout the day and then do the St Gottherds pass in the evening.

Anyone else care to join us.

 

 

No more spaces for 1st June . Will have to find something else to do or hope they hold back spaces on the day

Give uncle Gary a call on zero 7715554020

but it’s weekend rate as we travel on the Sunday make sure you book goppenstein to kanderstag 

dont worry to much about the gelmerbahn as they run every 20 minutes and the pass will just be open as they have had late heavy snow

We've not booked anything for the 1st yet as it's about half way through and a 2 day stop over. We will see what we fancy doing a bit closer.

 

Still not bothered with IDP's yet as no sign that we are leaving while we are away, but very easy to get in Brum if things change which is unlikely.
