There were several suggestions. Please could you tell us how you fixed the problem? It could help others in future.

I connected my Garmin to my laptop, then opened the Garmin connect software and reloaded the map of Europe.

Thank you all for your reply's, all sorted.

Hi all,
Looking for help or advice. I have a Garmin Edge Explorer 2 sat nav and the map on the screen has turned into a white background with just the route line to follow. It was a normal map until a few days ago. Going through all the menus I cant change it back. Has anyone else had this problem and resolved it or is it a fault on the head unit. any help would be grately appreciated.

Thanks.

Thank you, you have been very helpful. I think I will give tubeless a go.

It is a Boardman gravel/adventure bike. I use for road and off road, the punctures occurred on tarmac. I was not ready for how difficult it was to remove the tubeless ready tyre and may have caused the 2nd one with the fight I had to remove then replace both tyre and innertube. The tyres are schwalbe G-one speed 700cx38.

Hi all, looking for advice/opinions on running with tubeless tyres. I have inner tubes in both my tubeless ready tyres, after 2 punctures last weekend removing the tyre to repair the puncture was a nightmare. I have since found out why. what is your advice or opinions on tubeless tyres.

my 2nd question is touch up paint, can anyone advise on Boardman colours, RAL numbers for the paint or a company that can help with Boardman paint colours.

Thanks in advance.
Trevor.

Thank you Jonathan.

Your suggestions have hopefully solved my problem, thanks again.

Hi all,
I use a Garmin Edge Explorer with Komoot added as an app with an iphone XR. My problem is that the Garmin will not connect with the phone unless I remove it then add as a new device, it will then connect with phone and work ok until i switch the Garmin off. Is anybody else having this issue or have I a faulty unit.

Any help, advice or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi all, I am after some winter cycling gloves. I have looked at quite a few (probably to many), now bit confused, any recommendations for warm and waterproof gloves about £40-£50 or less.

Cheers
