New TomTom lets bikers take the scenic route
By downloading Tyre interactive software, bikers can search, create and edit their own routes on a PC. Alternatively, a unique 'Upload Routes and Go' feature enables bikers to upload routes directly to their device and share them with other bikers via Bluetooth.
"With this device, bikers can not only choose where to go, but more importantly how they want to get there," said Daan Henderickx, country manager for TomTom South Africa. "We listened to feedback from motorbike communities in order to create a device that was customised for the way they want to ride. We found that the overwhelming majority of bikers use their motorcycle for recreational purposes and many actively seek out routes that offer fantastic scenic touring experiences. This gives them the ability to find and ride the best scenic routes in the world."
In addition, it includes a feature that feeds audio instructions directly to the user's helmet via Bluetooth, meaning riders can fully concentrate on the road ahead. The device also includes the introduction of a new 4.3'' glove-friendly screen, which responds instantly to touch and is designed for riding in any weather conditions, including rain or bright sunlight. The device also comes with a new charging bike dock that turns it on or off with the ignition of the bike.
