Before I start drawing out the route from my Lake District book (which is great btw) Does anyone know if there is a repository of GPX's for these books anywhere?

I've got "Great British Bike Rides", which has it's own website. The address is in the Maps and Navigation section of the book if they follow the same format

try searching all the well known GPX sites for each ride usually brings up a result. You can also email the author and ask! thats what I did and was rewarded with with a rar file pack of the whole books worth!

Thanks for the suggestion, just tried this but unfortunately they don't have any for the lakes book 🙁 Same with view ranger as far as I can tell.

I'll try a search on some GPX sites

Drop them an email (despite my username, I don't work there any more. Didn't know this login still worked either.). There's no actual repository of files as such, but I had a fair few on my work computer and could usually help people out with the odd route. If they're not stacked with work/still have the files that were on my computer they might be able to send you something.
Alternatively, get the book, go on [url= http://bikehike.co.uk/index.php ]bikehike[/url] and plot them yourself. Really easy to use.
Hope that helps.
