Yep, dumped it on to the edge 1000's sd and it's seen straight away in basecamp. Looks totally different colours wise to the v1, is it based on a different base map? I've included a lot more Openstreetmap data (have you spotted gates ;-)) and I also incorporated elements of the Openfietsmap style t...

On a Garmin 530 create a new profile and disable all maps apart from OSM street map

Set detail to "Most" and enable "Show Contours"

I may remove the shops/pois that show in towns, let me know what you think of this

The newly updated file should fix the issue with it not showing on devices. I need to sort out instructions for using it on Edge series devices as it needs some more jiggery pokery but I've run out of time due to work so support will be scant. The file will show as "OSM street" on devices ...

I've recreated these problems my end. Fix isn't obvious so hang fire while I try and sort it

It should be smaller. I’ve only tested in Basecamp

I’ll try on my 530 tomorrow

My instructions were not clear enough. It needs to go in the Garmin Folder on the 530

Plug 530 into computer using usb cable. Drag the file gmapsupp.img to the Garmin file. Then enable the map in map settings on the unit.

To open on a desktop you need Garmin Basecamp installed. Then copy the gmapsupp.img file to a directory called Garmin on a USB stick or SD card. Basecamp will then open the map automatically

This has been a real journey to create a new render of my Garmin maps. You cannot know how many technical hurdles I've had to jump to get to this point as almost every library has changed since I did this a few years back. I found horrible errors in Ordnance Survey data and a number of bugs in the o...

Well reading this has changed our holiday plans. The 5 of us are now getting the ferry to Amsterdam, on bikes, and doing a leisurely 250Km loop using eco rated hostels and BnB's. We'll buy local etc and hope the kids don't hate it too much :lol: It was always an option to be honest, but this was a ...

Very sad, a great guy instrumental in the growth of UK 24 hour racing

Looks like Shona and Rich have scratched?

Good to see Steve Moat up there, really nice guy

Hang on we are all forgetting that the best thing we could do for the planet is f**k off and wreck another one. So let's just chuck everything at space travel and colonisation of better places with more beaches and no Merthyr Tydfils

I often think there's a lot of confusion between 'saving the planet' and 'saving ourselves'. If we'd like to save ourselves or at least extend our potential time here, then yes, behaviour needs to change. Yet, if we'd like to save the planet, then eradicating the human race as quickly as possible w...

I’ve filled it full of manure to fend off the BAMers

Cheery Friday here as we take ownership of our new allotment today. I'm off to buy a pipe and some tobacco and a hoe later.

Also reading Raw Spirit by Iain Banks, great fun though I confess to skipping the ample petrolhead discursions. I dipped in and out of it, and have now lost/lent out my copy. As a massive Iain Banks fan, it felt like it was under edited, and that he was given free reign. I hated it because of the s...

Won a ton on the premium bonds

I’ll own up. Never got on with tarps and woken up wet so many mornings. I’m in the whack a tent/bivy up and stay dry camp. My Big Agnes is zero faff, up in seconds and like a little hotel. For me it’s the technology moving on. None of us use canvas anymore? I started out under it.

I’d go back to them with your last paragraph and see what they say

My local had “Landlord” on tap tonight


Marvellous

Ten Year Old Talisker under the Barter tree. Irony was I had van camped next the the distillery a few weeks previously

I'm rendering a full UK version and will upload once the majority of bugs are ironed out.
