A while ago, I started a Google Map to include some good places to meet or stop and have a coffee or bite to eat. With help from the V-Strom community, the map has expanded countrywide and even dipped in to Europe. As it become more and more populated, I have decided to break it down and create a separate map for each set of POIs.
These maps are available to all, and I welcome any suggestions posted here. Not limited to UK, so happy for all suggestions for happy touring!

You can also upload all of these POI's to your satnav with the icons.
Right click and save the latest 'DC Custom Biker POI's' ZIP file on your computer.

Extract it to a new folder. It contains several files, and you will notice there is a corresponding
.BMP image file for each .CSV file. It is important to keep the file names and extensions exactly as they are.
Then use POI Loader to point to your new folder and upload them to your Satnav. It is best to save these to a seperate folder on your GPS, so that you can overwrite just these POIs when uploading a newer version.
Your satnav map should look like this when complete..
I will update the above file as and when there have been some more POI's added.
Also, here is a useful guide "Using Google Maps with your SatNav device" (Linky)
Please feel free to ask any questions.
