Route Summary
Since the beginning of the 1990s, Promotor has been issuing the so-called TankTasTochten. You understand that the name is still from the GPS-free era, when motorcyclists still searched their way on inland roads with a road book in the tank bag or routerol. The 173 ANWB Promoter TankTasTochten (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 with the approval of ANWB Promotor via the website of MrGPS so that everyone can enjoy it. The 1st TTT is from 1992, so the route may be slightly different from the original.
I checked all route points and placed them neatly on the road. Also, if necessary, I have put the start point and end point of the route a bit further apart to avoid navigating directly to the end point and I have added the POI files from the start and end point just like a possible stopping point.
Finally, I created the route for TomTom, Garmin and MyRoute-app Navigation users.
With thanks to Henry, Leon, MrGPS and Promoter.

RouteXpert Review
This TTT goes entirely through the province of Gelderland and starts in Beek to take you through mainly beautiful narrow roads along the border with Germany to Winterswijk to Groenlo *. * Groenlo is a city in the Achterhoek region in the Dutch province of Gelderland. Until 1 January 2005, Groenlo was an independent municipality and until 19 May 2006 Groenlo was the official name of the new municipality of Oost Gelre. (Source: Wikipedia).
First a stop at the Wooldse Veen **, to take some pictures of this area.
** Het Wooldse Veen, a beautiful nature area southeast of Winterswijk. Together with the Burlo-Vardingholter Venn on the other side of the German border it forms a vast piece of nature.
After lunch in Groenlo we drive a bit north to Haarlo, and then again in a southerly direction via Varsseveld to the terminus in Silvolde.
Because I have driven large parts of this route myself, this route gets 4 stars.
