Driving Routes

As long standing members know we organise quite a few one day tours for people to come along to. After a tour is completed it is usually just binned and forgotten about - however some of the club members might wish to do the same trip again and didn't remember the route fully.

So to counter this we are going to bring all the route maps that we have used back into one place so they can become a library for the club and other people to use as they see fit. If you have any routes you would like to add please contact the club committee.

Please note the routes were correct at the time of compiling.
Venues mentioned may have changed hands or closed, and roads might not match what is recorded.
EATOC does not accept any liability for the use or accuracy of the information below.
