  • Just bought a Garmin Edge Touring off eBay. I'm a total Garmin novice/mong. According to the instructions, I should be able to plan a route by entering an address like so:

    Where to > Route Planner > Add First Location > Address

    But my Garmin doesn't give me 'Address' as an option. I've only got:

    Current Location
    Saved
    Recent Finds
    Use Map
    POI Categories
    Cities
    Coordinates

    None of those options are very convenient. I'd quite like to enter a postcode. Why can't I?

  • I got a Garmin Edge Touring a few months ago too. I've used the on-device planning once, in an emergency. Found RideWithGPS (the free level) worked really well using a tcx file. The turn-by-turn wasn't so good, but a tcx file gives you waypoints with brief directions and a distance to the next coursepoint.

  • As far as I can see, free level of RideWithGPS won't allow me to export the route for use on my Garmin. Seems I have to pay for a premium subscription if I want to do this.

    Am I going to have to do the right thing and actually pay?
