Since I never have needed this so I have to see if there is a way to test this without having to go somewhere.
If I power on my Edge 705 indoors away from windows, in a few minutes it will give up trying to find satellites and pop up a menu where I can pick the current location from the map. If I subsequently select demo mode, I can navigate to points around the location that I chose. I just did this today in order to prepare for a business trip abroad. Thanks to Lambertus for providing the map download service! (And thanks to the mappers, my destination looks well mapped.) There is no way I would download hundreds of megabytes of osm.pbf extract and start splitting it myself. I can barely do the 90-megabyte Finland.
Anyone any hints where to start looking?
I guess that there are some parks or pedestrian areas where cars are not allowed. Similarly, some highway=trunk could have foot=no or bicycle=no. (Garmin could treat highway=motorway specially even with this new breakage, and keep forbidding bicycles and pedestrians from them. You could check that as well.) Best regards, Marko
