    Time to rename it as some kind of Geira planning thread to better reflect what it has become?

    Thanks for this great thread. Filing it away for the ever-growing bucket list. Echoing @peregrina2000 from another thread -- that the best gps app is the one you're used to - - I note that the Geira shows up on mapy.cz as a dark blue line...
