hello every one, i am Andy and at the beginning of June i am leaving Coventry and going to cycle to faro in Portugal going down the west coast of France from cherbourg across the north of Spain and into Portugal. i am going to hug the coast but can move inland if a nicer route.
I will be taking a net book with auto-route and a gps dongle, I will also have a smart phone with ovi maps on it, but I will be taking maps and compass, i will use all the methods available to me all to plan and glide me on my trip.
i would like to know what make of maps i should get. what scale and links if you have any to buy them from, i have read that people use Michelin atlas and take the pages need, this is fine. i have also read that this years ant as good some of the early ones.
This is my first tour and i am doing it solo so i want to be per paired. I am now at the planing stage, i have 95% of every thing that i need,
Thanks for any help
Andy
