• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Garmin GPS and Microsoft Streets & Trips

I have used Microsoft Streets and Trips as my ride planning tool for years, and am about to get my GPS (I'm a late adopter). Does anyone know how/if a trip plan from S&T can be uploaded to the Garmin??
 
After doing a Google search, it looks like the Microsoft software is not compatible with Garmin devices. The suggestions I read were to try and find some software to convert the Street and Trips data to something the Garmin can recognize (none specifically recommended) or to use Garmin's own route planning software.
 
Garmin users can use a software tool on their PC to manage favorites, routes, route planning, and the like. You can download and upload from/to nearly any Garmin device.

Download at http://www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=209

For example I downloaded all my favorites from my Nuvi 765T and then uploaded them into my Zumo 660. Took all of a few minutes . . .
