So whats in Italy Daryl?--touristy stuff?--not sure about trails?--my experience has been that they don't do camping, except on the coast. I used the Ortleibs for my trip to the Dordogne this year--and they give you a soft landing too if you tipple over!--they do what they say on the tin--and parti...

Too cheap not to order a pair.

Will report back mid July after a 2.5 week trip to Italy

It's not pedantic, Daryl , you're right - but it's not a birds eye overlay which you can use for mapping purposes. does that make sense? I think I see where you're coming from.

Not as convenient as bike specific stuff but at £14 each I won't complain. I suspect they wouldn't fair too well in a high speed slide along the ...

Gpx Are garmin file type names, kml and z are google file names.... You need to convert the file to garmin gpx and then open as track even if its originally a route lol....

Put my name down Al.
