Tuff Maps

w;;vHi all,

I agree with notes above, very durable, don't rip/tear even when you are pulling/pushing them out/in of the map pocket of the tank bag in the pouring rain. The UK one is OK, but I found the Europe one a little lacking in detail. The detail may be the same, but as I am more used to UK road naming conventions, it may just be the fact it is easier to misunderstand the EU markings/names while riding past at speed as well.

Cheers Paul

The UK one is really useful. Like the others, found that the European map is lacing in detail. It's OK if you want to keep to the motorways and main trunk roads, but then you miss all the little places and great roads.

Echo the above
but I have the Motrax versions. UK and Europe. The worlds strongest maps. They show all race venues.
Very similar methinks.
While they are waterproof and don't tear they do get dog eared and scuffed.

Had them a couple of years now but the novelty has worn off and I like buying maps especially the more detailed for holidays/touring.

More expensive I know. I also like cutting up maps and taking just the area that I want. Saves on bulk as well in the map window of the tank bag.
