Hi guys I'm looking at buying a garmin edge 810 trail bundle with the 1:50 explorer maps i just wondered if anyone has got there hands on the one yet and what you think are the 1:50 explorer maps worth the extra cost? and can you use it along side strava??

cheers

    Yep you can upload directly to strava. Can't help with your other question though!

    Yes, don't need an 810 for that, can do it with any device that communicates with Strava.

    Think you need a premium Strava account for downloading routes though?

    I have an 800 with a copy of the explorer maps and never use them. OSM maps from Talkytoaster are much easier to read and follow in my opinion.
