Gramin OpenStreet Maps

Looking for a little help....

I do a lot of casual cycling to help keep me fit and never really use the maps much. I just get on the bike and go.
I was wondering if adding a map of my area might help find new routes.

I have been on the Garmin Open Street Map website and created a couple of Maps using "Select Tiles" - just want to try it out in my area for now.
So I selected Generic Routable New Style, skipped the TYP file as I don't know what it is, selected the tiles for my area and then created the Map.

I have an email that says: Your request for a Garmin map on garmin.openstreetmap.nl is ready.

The server has generated four different configurations of your map:
* _windows.exe = Installer for Garmin BaseCamp/MapSource (Windows).
* _macosx.zip = Installer for Garmin BaseCamp/RoadTrip (Mac OSX)
* _gmapsupp.zip = Combined image for direct manual placement on the GPS device (gmapsupp.img)
* _tiles.zip = A zip file containing the tiles in the request, especially useful for Linux users (e.g. QLandkarte)

Can anyone advise what my next steps are please?

Thanks
