Selling my ticket for Montauk ride this weekend
It's a great ride (http://www.ridetomontauk.com) but I can't go this year. The tickets cost $112 but I'll sell you mine for $85, which is what I paid for early registration.
Garmin courses w/ turn-by-turn directions
When I did the SIG I was surprised to find that the Garmin files the leaders sent us for each ride provided turn-by-turn directions when loaded onto my Edge 500. Can anyone explain how I can map a ride on the computer and export it to my Edge 500 with turn-by-turn directions?
I have tried this using GarminConnect, but when I export to the device the course loads fine, but there are no turn-by-turn directions.
I have also tried it using bikeroutetoaster.com. In this case when I export to the device the course also loads fine. But when I try to cycle through to the page display that would contain the turn-by-turn directions, the device spontaneously shuts off. So what's the secret? Thanks!
