Roads not working on Garmin Connect and on Garmin Edge 1040

DavidKroter

When I try to build a route on Garmin Connect with Open Street Maps when I try to draw it in this N634 road the system don't let me do it. When I ride my bike on this road the behavior on Climb pro and Navigation in general are a disaster. I think this is a problem is some road nearby my home. I attach an image where you can look that in this rute, if I try to follow the route on the N634 the system does not work. It seems to do the same riding in this road. A problem with OSM maps?

This is what Garmin advice me to go. Garmin trying to avoid N611 and N634 without apparent reason

On this road and others where this problem appears Climb Pro without preloaded route works badly or does not work

    N634 is a "trunk" road in OSM. Trunk roads are a step below "motorways". It's possible (likely) that the routing assumes bicycling is not allowed on trunk roads.

    I wonder if selecting "other" (instead of "cycling") would route along the trunk road. (Ride with GPS has a "driving" option, which would let you route along trunk roads.)

    Interestingly, N634 has "foot" as explicitly allowed. It doesn't make too much sense that bicycling isn't also allowed.

    Climb Pro likely ignores roads the router thinks cycling is disallowed on.

    Thanks, Hope Garmin fix the map as soon as possible. It is very common here in Spain this problem with the trunk roads. Climb Pro does not working as you said when this happen. And navigation become a nightmare too.. A total disaster.

    I expect Garmin doesn’t ever update OSM maps. 

    If you are creating routes, I suggest using RWGPS and “driving” routing.

    ... or ... even with OSM you can change the attributes of this quick route - go ahead, dare

    No, I want this fixed because climb pro without route preload does not work with this issue. I like ho without route loaded

    try it David - as soon as the attribute of the highway has been added/changed, ClimbPro will also take the gradient into account, I'm sure. However, Garmin can take six months to a year to compile the updated map. You could use a “third-party” OSM map, for example Openfietsmap for racing cyclists

    But, where can i change it. Can i reclasify thr road?, where?. On OSM maps, on garl,min maps  on the Edge10400. What i want is climb pro without rouge preload working.

    Believe me , ClimbPro also works with “third-party” maps, which works wonderfully for me, even better than with CycleMaps.

    The gradients are recognized via the location maps used and evaluated via the ClimbPro-databases (in the register \Garmin\Garmin\SQL\internal) files and then displayed on the ClimbPro screen.

    Just try it, you can't destroy anything ... but wait until your changes are confirmed in OSM and integrated when the maps are updated. With Openfietsmap this takes less than two weeks
