Many thanks, saved to MyDrive, ready for my TomTom...

@Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman those are for garmin (gpx) you need .itn files for tom toms, these dont seem to be uploadable on forum, I have emailed them accross to you 

[Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman]

Thanks. .gpx files should be viewable and editable from the on line Tom Tom MyDrive tool. That said, the latest on liine version of the tool seems to have stopped working with my sat nav.

 

Will try the .itn files, thanks

[Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman]

Had to use the memory card transfer method in the end; the newer Go range seem to have swapped to .gpx files, when exporting, just like the online MyDrive/Plan.tomtom service.

 

It recognises either .itn or .gpx files.

 

Will try it on my old 620, used for the Westfield, see if that works for both or just .itn

[Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman]

Aye, my older TomTom 620 seems to work fine with either .itn or .gpx files, too. Again, it's default seems to be .gpx.

 

Note, the route files do have to be in a TomTom folder, on the memory card.

[Ian Kinder (Bagpuss) - Joint Peak District AO]

@Jim cunliffe sounds like you’d need to connect your TomTom to a PC for this, sorry. 

[Robin Parker (Red Spider) - Yorkshire AO]

Looking forward to seeing everyone at Scotch Corner on Saturday afternoon. Hope to be there between 4:30 and 5.

So far only 3 of us, if anyone else wants to join us either at the Motorist or en-route, here's the route.

Positively squeaking with excitement in our house. Loving how the trip hat matches my lanyard. 
 

Looking forward to seeing the Yorkshire crew there, thank you Robin.
