A GPS Showing A Felt Bicycle

[Fulltimer]

I just bought a Garmin Nuvi 1450LMT. Garmin offers a bunch of downloadable icons that show up on the GPS.

Here is the Felt Bicycle: http://www8.garmin.com/vehicles/product.html?vName=feltBicycle

Run your cursor over the bike!

I have the GPS mounted in my Jeep. You can choose from the following: Automobile, pedestrian or bicycle. I wanted to see the different screens for bicycles so I took off in the Jeep but with the GPS set for bicycle. As soon as I hit 20mph it asked me if I wanted to change to automobile! LOL! I told it no and nothing changed. There didn't seem to be anything different between the 2 settings.

That is cool Terry. I have a Garmin mounted on a gas tank on one of my bikes. That is gonna be perfect. Thanks for posting!

Some times just to mess with Carol, I change her GPS to British English and other languges etc.

Think I am gonna load this one on her's; http://www8.garmin.com/vehicles/product.html?vName=scaryScooter

Wonder if Transylvanian is an option? Would go with the "spookie"

Later, when she asks me to fix it, I say; "WTH did you do?"

wut?

Yes the voice navigation will fix her right up.

My Garmin Nuvi has significant differences on Bicycle setting. It calculates your estimated time differently, and will often route on surfaces streets with lots of turns vs. a simpler route along a freeway or tollway.
