  • Welcome to your first experience of a garmin product letting you down...

  • And I'm guessing not the last.....

    However, the 810 seems to do a lot of things I want and a lot more I didn't even know I wanted. Is it worth shelling out the extra £37 for City Navigation for Europe Maps? Are the maps only of cities (I have no intention of riding in a city!)?

    Pardon the moronic noob technophobe questions....

  • Check @c0gsucker's respond a couple post up.

    Not really worth spending more money on free maps.

    AFAIK I think the Edge Touring come with the European map as standard, whether the 810 doesn't.

  • City Navigator isn't just for cities, despite the stupid name. It's basically just Garmin's navigation data locked to an SD card. I decided that it was worth buying it, since you can't download (easily) OSM maps for the whole of Europe, and I like the ease of just having it work anywhere in Europe without having to faff around with downloads and SD cards and the rest. However, YMMV.
