I'm a bit concerned about the Chris quota. I think we have three but is that enough to make an official RTT?

If you need other formats then let me know and I'll see if I can accomodate!
Looks good Matt. If it helps I used the Tyre application to import the three day's routes you've done on Google maps into TomTom itineries. They look OK to me, the proof will be when we get there 
. I'll stick close to you on day one until I'm confident they've converted correctly 
If anyone want's a copy let me know I'll email them to you, with the caveat that I cannot be held responsible for anyone lost in the German hinterland
