Morocco Overland by Chris Scott Routes in GPX format

Hi,

I've spend some time lifting the routes out of the book and into the computer for our upcoming trip to Morocco. Here they are in .GPX format.

Every route and every waypoint.

Thanks for the great book Chris Sctott and
keep motoring!
Michelin Man


EDIT:

Hi,
Very sorry but I had to take these down as the routes are copyrighted material.

Thanks all, Chris, BYT and Tim for your comments,
Michelin Man

The files on the website
- are separate--one per route rather than one file for each section of the book
- only appear to have the start and end waypoint plus a few others
- aren't joined in a route

I understand that Chris Scott has put a massive effort into compiling the awesome book... And therefore the results are "his"...
Is there nowhere that we can purchase these waypoints?

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
