@Marinus-van-Deudekom said: I have extensive experience with the XT and XT2. None with the XT3. The only thing that you have mentioned that the 3D function on that XT3 is what you like. You've previously described your extensive experience with the following: Yes I did use an XT device for a couple of years and the main reason for me to switch to the T865X was the multiple attempts of that XT to mess up my ride. This is due to way Garmin devices handle routes that are not made with Garmin. With respect, this says your experience was far from successful. The above says you never got to a point of functionally understanding the XT devices. It's patently false that the XT (by design) messes up routes not made with Garmin. I'll not entertain this at all in a comparison discussion. If you had problems, it was something you were doing wrong on your side. Again, not opinion -- objective fact. I entered this thread because there was another unnecessary MRA fan comment denigrating the OP's final Garmin decision. I made no Garmin Fanboy comments trying to convert him. If you're truly interested in Garmin functions that don't currently exist in MRA, search my many posts on the subject. I have no interest in repeating them here.

Today i rode the route again. Just to see if the same problem happens again. And it did. Same place same result. I lost cell coverage and approx 500 meters later, point 42 was skipped to point 56. See the result in the screenshot below [image: 1788708421012-screenshot_20260906-142726.png]

@corjan-meijerink : Now I have become very curious because the dear CEO Michel van Hagen has shared the video, let's test it soon as beta users. https://youtu.be/_z-LptRznFY?is=G2bVCm_B24XmbqAx What new features are there: Sequence / parts location or so .. At least that was hinted at —-###—- Jetzt bin ich sehr neugierig geworden weil der liebe CEO Michel van Hagen das Video geteilt hat, lass es uns bald als Beta User auch testen. https://youtu.be/_z-LptRznFY?is=G2bVCm_B24XmbqAx Welche neuen Funktionen gibt es denn: Folge / Teile Standort oder so .. Das wurde zumindest angedeutet

...sending the link as @con-hennekens wrote, is fine for let me say single action. If it happens often, I prefer to have a dedicated folder "for friends" - always with access right "for friends", as @peter-zehentreiter wrote. If it's needed to share a route, I simply move or copy my root into this folder. My friends knows about this folder...

@Marinus-van-Deudekom said: Yes and make absolutely shure that recalculation and traffic info is OFF The only Recalculation that can be turned off in Garmin devices is in off-route scenarios. In settings, you have the options of setting always OFF or prompted OFF. This has nothing to do with what happens when a new route is imported into the Garmin. On import, a route is always recalculated based on the rules you select in settings. As far as Traffic, I have no idea how that would come into play. Traffic is and XT2/3 runtime feature provided through the Garmin Tread app, which actually works quite well. If I'm missing something on this, please explain.

enjoy the country side. hope it isn't raining cats and dogs

Rij je wel een route en geen track?

@Brian-McG als ze het verzoek nog goedkeuren

Hartelijk dank voor het warme welkom. @superg: ik ben nogal een impulsieve rijder, én digibeet zonder pc dus routes maken gaat gewoonweg niet

To operate tracks isn't the main competence of MRA. May in future...

@Lynchy67 It is on the list for major maintenance of the website, just like being able to export multiple routes in one go. Please be patient.

@Garry-Davis exactly, that would have been my second advice, but you are one step ahead. You can choose your beloved app, to count a route to the petrolstation

Hi ! So, the bad news is that Transfagarasan is still closed for now, but it should be opened in the next two weeks. You can check the live cam from time to time: https://www.roxy-world.ro/webcam-transfagarasan Good news is that Transalpina was opened about 5 days ago, some of my friends went there already and confirmed this. Enjoy Romania !
