    Great, thanks for the quick response! Probably the same issue for Wahoo, I guess. Interesting that the FIT worked with that symbol, so it must be something in the way it processes the TCX as opposed to the symbol itself.

    We think we've found the issue. Garmin didn't like the & sign in the labels you added. We've changed our download process to exclude these from any coursepoint names, so it should work OK fior you now.

    Thanks - we'll try those two routes and let you know how we get on.

    Thanks for the response.

    I have tried the Garmin Sync feature - like most things Garmin related it left me thinking it was ok but not great. The direct export and also copying a FIT file to the garmin result in me seeing the "Label" on the map and getting a pop-up when I get to it, but I don't see the "Direction" at all. On the Bolt I see "Direction" but not the "Label". The bolt gave me warnings from about 250m out, but the Garmin didn't give me any warnings for my custom directions (obviously I will be trying it with turn warnings turned on for the Garmin, but haven't had a chance yet, and that wouldn't impact the direct sync version anyway, surely?).

    The particular files are  https://www.plotaroute.com/route/2009611 and https://www.plotaroute.com/route/2009613.

    Thanks!

    We haven't changed anything at our end and haven't heard any other reports of this issue. If you let us know which routes they are we can try here. Have you tried using our Garmin Sync feature instead of doing a manual file transfer?

    I've just downloaded a couple of TCX files, and neither of them are working on either my garmin edge or my Bolt. In the past TCX files from PlotARoute worked fine on both devices. Is anyone else having this problem? Is it a new bug?
