Route Summary
Ever since the early 90s of the last century, Promotor has been setting out the so-called Tank Bag Tours. You understand that the name still comes from the GPS-free era, when motorcyclists still searched their way on inland roads with a roadbook in the tank bag or router roll. The 173 ANWB Promoter TankTasTocht (TTT) were scanned by Henry ten Dam and signed by Leon Stolk in Mapsource and later placed as a Track in a .gpx file. These have been made available through the MrGPS website with the approval of the ANWB Promoter so that everyone can enjoy it. The 1st TTT is from 1992, so the route may differ slightly from the original.
I have checked all route points and, where necessary, placed them neatly on the road. I have also, if necessary, set the starting point and end point of the route a little further apart to prevent navigation to the end point directly and added the POI files of the starting point and end point just like a possible stopping point.
Finally, I made the route the same for TomTom, Garmin and MyRoute-app Navigation users.
Thanks to Henry, Leon, MrGPS and Promoter.

RouteXpert Review
This TTT starts in Enkhuizen and goes on mostly beautiful roads, then along the water and then along the meadows to the end point in Watergang. Halfway through the route you can stop for lunch at Eetcafé 70 in De Goorn *. * De Goorn is a village in the municipality of Koggenland, in the Dutch province of Noord-Holland. The village has approximately 2800 inhabitants. Together with Avenhorn, the village forms the capital of the municipality of Koggenland, the town hall is in De Goorn. (Source: Wikipedia).
After lunch it will continue towards Monnickendam and you can stop at the Uitdammerdijk for a photo to finally arrive at the end point in Watergang where you can finish this TTT with a cup of coffee at restaurant Dijks.
Because I have not (yet) driven this route myself, this route gets 3 stars.
Route details:
The route has been made the same for TomTom, Garmin and MyRoute-app Navigation users. That has been successful everywhere except in Animals between route points 53 and 54 (Purple), where TomTom and Garmin disagree. Not a big problem, if you drive alone you just follow the instructions of your GPS, if you drive in a group then you follow the driver. From route point 54 the two come together again and your GPS will follow the route correctly again.
Colored route points:
rp 1 - Start at Stationscafe in Enkhuizen
