GC Connect Plan and TimeZone ?

Hi all

To date Ive been using TodaysPlan workouts synch'd to Garmin Connect (GC) and its all worked perfectly.  When I would start a ride on the Edge530 it would prompt if you wanted to do the workout, and if selected it showed the correct workout for that day (New Zealand timezone).

Thought Id give a Garmin plan a go for a short period.  Plan was created in GC Web calendar and it synch'd successfully to my Edge530 (eg it shows in Training > Training Plan and has the correct activity and date displayed.  On my Garmin 945 they also show correctly.

For the first workout, I did it in the afternoon and it behaved as expected where it prompted for the workout or to Skip ... all worked OK.

The second day (with the ride occurring early morning) was a failure where there was no way to select the desired workout.  On starting the ride there was the prompt to do the workout, but it was the workout from the previous day.  On cancelling it, there was no way to get to the desired workout.  Going into TRaining > Training Plan there was only a nice photo for the workout and not the usual workout profile, and only "Weather and Find a Course".  There was no way to actually select the workout to ride it.  Looking at the workout on my Garmin 945 it was all as expected - could select the workout and "ride" it.

Thought it might have just been a glitch with synch and day 2 being so close to Day 1 etc etc etc .... but happened again on Day 2.  Again, an early morning ride and not able to select the desired workout.

If I was to guess it appears the Edge530 is approx 12 hours out (but its not in terms of the day/date/time displayed on the unit).  Everything in GC Web looks OK ...  and as I said ... it works fine with TodaysPlan workouts coming across, as well as on my Garmin 945.

Any ideas?
