Where is this road? I’ve been on one very similar near Penrith a few years back...... presuming it’s in the UK. scratchchin

I live on this road. It's on the Applecross Peninsula in Wester Ross.

It is the road pictured in your original post.

Similar area to Mr_Megalomaniac's route, I also scrabbled together this one from other recommendations on here. 90 mile route from north east London into Hertfordshire and Essex:

You've done well creating this map. However I am struggling with accessing routes as you do in your video. Once I've opened your overlay I can click on the routes as you do. Any ideas?

I know it's been dead a while, but I've used these a few times — thanks for the effort! This is one of my favourite routes I found. It's in the South-East, I've routed from near Greenwich in a loop.

From Blackheath to Blackheath via A20 and A21.
