Curvy Roads
In addition to those with the fastest time and the shortest distance, zūmo can tell you which routes are just more fun. Use the Curvy Roads feature to navigate to winding roads.


I may have to trade in my Tom Tom for one of these  :think1

My Tomtom (on the iPhone) has a 'winding roads' option, designed to find the best motorcycle route.... It is very good!!!!

Cheers,

I don't know how accurate the feature would be. When I was beta testing for Navig8r I was told that even gravel roads were not coded accurately enough, and I have tried the Zumo 660 on 'avoid gravel' and it has tried to take me on gravel roads. A bit hit and miss.

When I lived in Port Hedland members of these companies would go to stations and ask where does the road go, "over the hill and up the dale", that will do , we'll put that in.
