    Connected ride navigator

    Ever since I got my new GSA , dealing with the Navigator was not easy , I didn't find it very intuitive and couldn't plan a route .
    I'm not a tech guru and I was getting a bit frustrated with the device ...
    But today I found this video to teach me how it's done , and the guy did a very good job explaining .

    So here it is : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IrC1oKCLoWo

    Hope it will help some of you here .

    I already had a Garmin Zumo XT2 so I switched out the BMW mount. I can't say I love the XT2. If I didn't already have the XT2 I would have tried the BMW Navigator.

    Reasons I don't like the XT2 as much as the old Zump 396.
    - prior Garmin's did not require an App in order to get weather warnings
    - Routing in the XT2 is easier than routing in the Tread App, but if you do open a route in the Tread App it will "reroute" based on Tread App settings. Very annoying.
    - XT2 screen will change in a hard rain. (It gets really wonky in hail!)
    - Arriving at destination results in screen pop-ups for local businesses or attractions. This usually occurs just before arriving at one's destination. It shows "O'Charlie's" when I really want to know "O'Chit, do I go right here or the next turn!"

    At least the screen display is nice and crisp.
