To reduce the gpx file it would be better to use the nodes where
the route changes from one way to another or where the way
ends/starts. This would leave the GPS to figure out that the
internal map has a way between those points and can use it That
should be less way points. But even then on my 5,000 km route it
would be far too big for my old GPS as one route. That is ok ..
I'd separate it into bits. <br>

It may be possible...<br>
Each node alone the OSM route would be a waypoint for your
Garmin device <br>
as a route. There will be lots of waypoints!<br>
You would need a OSM map on the Garmin device.<br>
<br>
That may work... I am not certain if voice prompts would work,
but the <br>
gpx file will be large, there may be too many waypoints for
you device <br>
to handle.<br>
The device will still be routing .. but between the nodes of
the way <br>
there will be no difference between the OSM map and the route.<br>
<br>
Because of the large number of waypoints I'd think most people
will not <br>
do this. If you chose to do it Peter, good luck.<br>
