where to buy cycling maps in central london..

[princeperch]

..specifically the french and swiss alps tomorrow?

First place I thought of was Smiths, but doesnt appear to have anything, not at least online...

What sort of maps - road or off road? For road find a branch of waterstones travel section and look for mchelin regional maps - numbers 561, 552, 523, 527 are the ones I have of the area that go down to fine detail but they are not specific cycling maps as such

Swiss Centre in Leicester Sq surely has got to be a good shout...for Switzerland anyway. You can get your vignette there too if you're driving.

I popped into Stanfords today as it is round the corner from work - just the job! Cheers

You'll be out of luck at the Swiss centre, they've demolished it!

Would have been my suggestion too. Excellent shop - I can get lost for hours in there!
