Very sorry the link wasn't showing so you are not losing the plot. look again.
I have done a revised version of the gpx that misses out all the death traps and clough's

If you click on the flags in the gpx , if it has a name then it is the start or end of a trail. If it doesn't have a name or is something like w1023 then it is a way point to help in navigation only.

Do you know if your Tom Tom can create Itinary ?

I have modified the gpx to include some more of the 'easier' trails but missing out on Monsel Head which you woouldn't thank me for.
I have also created a itinery file which you can import into TomTom. You would then use the itinery file to get you to the start, then use each item of the itinery to get you to the start of the next trail. Use this with your Iphone OS map or OS map and you will sus out where you go on the trail - most start and finish with gravel heheheh.
ONce you get to the end of that trail get TomTom to navigate you to the next one and so on.

Thanks for organising a great weekend Gary. Just what the doctor ordered, a ride out that wasn't too difficult, but hard enough to still be interesting. I couldn't have coped with another weekend like my previous one in Wales, where I spent more time picking the bike up than riding it.

Nice to meet some new faces.
