Creating a course for Garmin 705 GPS

[blakbanshee]

did you have the 705 plugged into your computer when you pasted the course in that folder?

You must be in the millersville area of PA. I was watching the video and noticed the roads you were taking and it just hit me. Thank you for the advice !

Het duurt even voordat je alles door hebt, maar werkt verder heel duidelijk. Super dus.

TY... do you know if the file/program is compatible with other Garmin's...?... ie: oregon 550, etc...?

[helmivach]

Great video, planning to get one for sure now. Thanks :)

I have never tried the back to start function within the GPS before. I recently had my GPS start routing me with the commands northwest at ...or sourth at.. and felt something was really wrong. I proceeded to power off my 705, reseat my memory card that contains my mapset and power it back on and then restart my ride. The turn names then came up as I expected them to.

Out and back I would draw the course back on itself even if I had to make a second course that was a reverse of the first.

@bheiland when i open mine garmin i dnt see courses workouts

I have followed a one way course out about 20 miles and then hit back to start. i found that the back to start directions were far more vague like "south at turn 9" instead of the street name. If i missed a street it was very hard to get back on course. Would you recommend creating an out and back course?

[peteandtess]

Excellent video! Can you offer advice as to how to edit/modify the route after you have created it to change streets etc. i have tried dragging the points but it will create a triangle to that point and not re-route the course. Can you delete a section and re-route that section? Many thanks.

i barely ever write comments, but this site is easy to use, and you clarified everything for me, thank you

[MrLozatron]

This is utterly superb - thank you. Now all I need to do is figure out how to follow the route on my garmin...

If that could be described as "Creating a Course for Garmin Edge 705 for Dummies" then, as a dummy, I am very impressed as I found it so intuitive and easy to follow.

I will set up my garmin on my laptop, follow your instructions and let you know how it went.

Many, many thanks. Do you have more Edge 705 tutorials?

[thathatt]

I just created a folder and named it courses.

[peterahughes]

[baljeetd]

Helpful guide - thanks.

[Yusufmasron]

That certainly helps. Justifies paying for the edge 705.... TQ

when i access the 705 to copy the map over to courses there is no courses in the folder only history.
