Thank you for your response to my post. I finally got things figured out by playing with it and going through the online instructions. I mapped a ride on Garmin Connects which I find very user friendly then put it into the Garmin. I also mapped a ride while riding then transferred to Garmin Connects. All good there.
While playing with it I finally found the chime when making a turn and displaying what they show on the box cover of a mapped ride while riding. I just put alot of settings "on" and yesterday I got exactly what I wanted, the chime, text at the top telling me the next turn. I got the mph on the map display. I guess somewhere I set the distance wrong because it is showing feet of whatever because sometimes it says 0 and others it is giving me feet of something. So after I figure that out all will be perfect.
Thank you again!!!
