Every route is hand-curated with the stuff map data can't tell you — speed cameras, single-track warnings, seasonal closures, 30% gradients, and where to stop for a proper brew.
Black Mountain Pass, Gospel Pass, the Evo Triangle, Llanberis, Hardknott, Bealach na Bà, the TT Mountain Road — and Europe's icons: Stelvio, Transfăgărășan, Route Napoléon.
Average-speed cameras on the Cat and Fiddle. Winter closures on the Susten. Single-track with ponies on Gospel Pass. We tell you before you set off.
Pit stops, cafés and dinner spots on the routes — the Applecross Inn's seafood, the pub in Llanthony Priory's cellar, the Kirkstone Pass Inn at the summit.
One tap opens Google Maps from wherever you are, pinned to the scenic road so it can't "helpfully" reroute you onto the dual carriageway. Motorways or no motorways — your choice.
Planning a Sunday loop or a week to Spain — the whole club follows one link.
Pin the exact car park. Everyone gets a "navigate to meet" button straight to it.
Out one way, back another with the round-trip toggle. Ferries and the Eurotunnel are suggested automatically when the route crosses water — Biscay boats for Spain, Steam Packet for the TT.
A ready-written invite for WhatsApp with the route, the meet and the sell. Opening it shows the full plan — total miles including getting there and back, not just the fun bits.
A proper briefing PDF: route map, legs, stops, ferry bookings, run leader and tail car lines — plus a QR code that scans back to the live route.
We studied every driving-roads app out there. Then we built the opposite of what makes them infuriating.
Other apps let you plan free, then charge £60–80/year the moment you press "start". Great Drives never will.
Nothing to sign up for. Your saved roads and trips live on your phone, not our servers. We don't even have servers.
Install it to your home screen and the routes, plans and run sheets work with zero signal — only the map tiles need data.
iPhone or Android, new or old — it's a web app, so nobody in the club is left out of the run.
