Absolutely! Our Motorcycle Tour Book and routes are designed for universal compatibility across all your devices:
- Dedicated GPS & Smart Displays: Our GPX & KML files work perfectly with classic units like Garmin, TomTom, and BMW Navigator. They are also fully compatible with modern smart displays like Carpuride or Chigee - simply connect your phone via CarPlay or Android Auto to see your routes on a crisp, large screen.

How do I upload tracks to my navigation system, as I've never done it before?
In the Tour Book PDF document we provided, there is a step-by-step text instruction and links to videos showing how to upload tracks to the recommended free apps: OSMAND (for GPX files) and MAPS.ME (for KML files), as well as to motorcycle navigation systems Garmin, TomTom, and BMW Navigator.

Will the routes work in Google Maps?
Google Maps is nothing more than an algorithm that takes you on the shortest route from point A to point B (which works well when you need to get to a hotel or campsite, for example). But by doing so, you miss out on the most interesting and scenic routes.
Our specially planned routes are designed for navigation systems that follow tracks. That’s why we recommend using the OsmAnd/Locus/DMD2 app (for GPX files) or Maps.me (for KML files), or navigation devices from TomTom, Garmin, or BMW Navigator. With our tracks, you can be sure you're riding truly scenic and interesting routes.
Can I share the purchased files with my friends?
Each purchase is personalized (all PDF/GPX/KML files contain your details). If the tracks or PDFs are sold, shared, or sent to someone without the author's knowledge, legal consequences will follow. Please respect our creative work; the guide is for your personal use only. Thank you!
If you're traveling in a group, encourage your friends to buy their own "Ultimate Tour Book & Ready-to-Ride Routes". For each of them, it's just a few beers or a good meal at a restaurant, but for us, it means growth and the opportunity to create more amazing trips for you! Thank you!
Do you offer a printed version of the guide?
We intentionally chose a digital-only format because printed books become outdated within a year or two and eventually end up on the shelf. A digital Motorcycle Tour Book is a far superior tool for a modern rider:
- Regular Updates: Roads change - new roundabouts and bypasses appear every season. Our digital routes are constantly updated so you never get stuck on a closed road or an outdated map.
- GPS Integration: Unlike paper, our digital guides include GPX files for your Garmin, TomTom, or smartphone.
- Zero Bulk & Instant Access: It takes up no space in your panniers and adds zero weight to your bike. No extra weight in your panniers. Your smartphone becomes a powerful guide, giving you instant, one-tap access to stories and info about every attraction the moment you stop.
- Printable A4 format: If you still want paper for a specific day, you can easily print the pages you need.
In short: We provide the data, you focus on the ride!
