Trips
A test of the TomTom. The recording of routes has been really poor; the end of the route was nowhere near where I actually went, plus anomalies on the way. The total mileage was also incredibly useless as well. So how did the test go? Mileage total crap - it's around 12 miles not 22. The route looks right but.... it seems TomTom thnks we doubled back a few times. When it plays out on the screen,...
4.6 mph average. About the norm for London's congested streets.
1.9 miles in 18 minutes!!!!
A mostly off road drive from Brno to Prague calling in at a few sights along the way...
From the hotel up to Ironbridge Gorge to visit the Museums and the Ironbridge itself.
The drive from Home to Bridgnorth.
Another test of the Everytrail iPhone app on a short trip to the White Cliffs of Dover National Trust.
A run from the built up side of Malaga to the less built up east.
A drive from Competa back to the airport with a few stops by the seaside for a paddle and lunch!
Another run out to see some of the white villages in the mountains behind the Costa del Sol
What started off as a little run out ended up with a horrendous trip on gravel roads where the Opel Corsa 1.3 Eco Diesel isn't suited.We ended up at Ojen. A truly lovely "white village" unlike Coin that seems to be a bit of a dump!
A short trip to Beauvais and Abbeville to visit a couple of Plus Beaux Villages de France at Gerberoy and Lyons la Foret.
A circular trip around the country lanes of Kent and East Sussex ending at Scotney Castle.http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/main/w-vh/w-visits/w-findaplace/w-scotneycastlegarden/
An afternoon of shingle and steam...
