I've put a bunch of routes on Plotaroute https://www.plotaroute.com/ in preparation for ride from London to Pisa.
I'd normally rely on maps, but maps of France and Italy are not as clever as the OS maps, and road signs in Italy are notable for their absence. I could use a phone to work out my location and relate it to the paper maps, but I am toying, after a decade of resistance, with the idea of getting one of these not-so-new fangled routefinding devices.
The plotaroutes have about 5000 points per route.
Is there a GPS device that could hold a dozen or so of these routes? Better yet, given that I'm thinking of a really big ride in 2017, is there a device that could hold fifty?
Or, am I approaching this from the wrong angle? Is there another way?
