Tourist Routes

jonandmarkuk · Posted: Thu Nov 15, 2007 9:05 am Post subject: Tourist Routes

Downloaded the 2 UK tourist routes and they look really good, although not sure if they could be done in a day as the Lake District one said something like 19 hours. But if you were doing this as part of a holiday it looks really good.
What maybe lacking is a description on the website of what places are and any suggestions of places to stay along the way.

All in all it looks a really nice idea and look forward to seeing more. Maybe a Cotswolds one (love that area)

No strangly you have to download it from the website and it's like a patch to the program. Once you have installed it the routes are listed to add to the GPS.

I know it's only got France Commercial POI at the moment but anyone found where you download these? Also I have only found the one France 'Special POI'

hmmm,,, I went here.
http://gps.viamichelin.com/viamichelin/gbr/GPS/htm/nav/telechargement.htm

Clicked on tourist routes... logged in, and I cant find them. Any hints?

I also found that depending where I login, the webpage is displayed sometimes in English, French and certain parts in Dutch. Confused

I always go to http://www.viamichelin.co.uk/viamichelin/gbr/dyn/controller/NavAccountMyHomePage as it seems to be the only page which has active links.

I keep getting sent round the houses looking for these routes. I've signed in on about 3 different login pages that keep coming up although I'm signed in already, I've had pages in Dutch, pages in English and French at the same time and I still can't find out where to get them from.

The commercial POI's are available via the downloads section under GPS Navigation, I don't seem to have a problem finding those !

Maybe it's something to do with my ad-blocker again.

Weird Confused

No idea how to attach an image. But I just looked and oddly now I can't access the Commerical POI (not too bothered as it was France).

Maybe they are still busy re-designing the pages and will all get sorted out in the few days?[/img]

I received a screen shot of what jonandmarkuk see's (thanks again)... It's completely different, it looks like I'm getting a site for V6 devices or something (out of date)? So I can't download the tourist routes, and it still log's me into the French and Dutch site every now and again Mad

Any one else get this weirdness?

Just worth a try but clear out the cookies and IE cache and see if makes a difference, or if you can try to access from a different pc?

You may have already tried, can't remember.

Yes, I get the same, can see a Lake District tours etc on the home page where it suggests you register your v7 (already done) but as soon as I go to my own pages etc (which acknowledge I have v7) it's not there anymore.

I am also getting so many Dutch pages I am thinking of taking classes Laughing

Thank heavens the web designer doesn't programme the navigation software
