Thank you! Following yours with interest.

Have a great trip Robyn. Bonne route.

Kelly, I'd love to figure out how to do this. Have spent a couple of jetlagged hours playing with RWGPS Event function, which is supposed to allow you to combine multiple routes onto a single map. But once I create an event, there is no facility on my screen to add routes to it. Have read Scott's comments in forum and even started a free RWGPS premium trial - all to no avail.

Great news that you’ve arrived safe ( and very tired probably!) Hope you have a good rest up and feel all fired up for day 2 xxx

By chance would you have this entire route on a RWGPS map that we can zoom in on?

Lol! 🤣

Yes Tricia, I've looked at YouTube clips and read about the Fern Pass. We are definitely looking at the bike track, not the road. Bruce will be absolutely fine. He's riding his mountain bike and loves that sort of thing. I just think I will have to walk a lot. Or the shuttle ...Thanks for your journal link. I'll read it now.

We're hoping so Scott. Could also be hot!

About the Fernpass it is in my journal Hunting down Ancient Tractors between Düsseldorf and Warsaw. As I said Reissenpass (sp) absolutely fine. We have also done the St Gottard pass from the Andermatt side - walked a lot but loved it particularly the cobbled part on the Italia side

That is a wonderful route Robyn - we did it a few years ago. Just one hint of caution the route aver the Fern pass is near impossible - road narrow and very busy and the bike track all but impassible. there is an option there is a shuttle bus that will take you your bikes and luggage over the last very difficult part. we did that along with other cyclists. Met one person who had cycled it and he said never again. Maybe it has improved in the meantime. The Reisenpass is fine
have a great time
Tricia

First time back in Italy in 40 years? should be amazing.
