Evening all,
I have a Garmin 1000 which came with stock maps, I used this guide ages ago:
https://dcrainmaker.com/2019/08/how-to-install-free-maps-on-your-garmin-edge.html
And put maps on there for France, Italy, Spain and Mauritius, but I am aware that the ones for the UK are likely now massively out of date.
Additionally, I have very recently taken delivery of a 2nd 1000 which will be for my partner, and I want to be able to gift it to her with all the maps updated, and preferably in the most ready state it can be, so thought I may as well blitz both at the same time.
I sometimes lead rides for our club, so a reliable mapping system is key - my partner would like to have that potential as well, hence the new 2nd hand device.
Looking on a facebook post I saw this place mentioned as well, though it looks like the basic UK ones are free, more detailed ones cost more, and European ones are all chargable - wondering if the more detailed ones might be useful when venturing off road.

Be interested to hear what other people use, this must be a fairly common train of thought and process presumably?
Thanks
Dan
