Re: Take 2 : F-Type Grand Tour of alpine regions in Europe.

Some good roads there, looks great. All our plans for touring in Pyrenees and Alps last year (and this) scrapped sadly, although did manage a week in the Scottish Highlands earlier this month which was great - although no GoPro. Last year my son could not go : exams and uni entry. After a month he ...

Re: Take 2 : F-Type Grand Tour of alpine regions in Europe.

Thanks ! The cyclist are used to Italian and French drivers, and completely at loss why we don't push on in corners blindly like those drivers do... :shock: This clip is a tiny part of the recordings. It takes about one hour to drive this pass. But many scenes are trees or straight sections. People ...

Re: Routeplanner driving me insane.

I didn't complaint about connecting my android phone, that - indeed- came with USB-C / USB.

To make it clear the problem would be with an Iphone, I stressed it. That's all. :|

Re: Routeplanner driving me insane.

Er, a USB C to regular USB cable? :? Your phone probably came with one to charge it (don't chargers all use regular USB?). I'm sorry.
