Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere but a search for TCX on Hammerhead site came up with nothing. I was reading on the https://ridewithgps.com/ site that importing a TCX file keeps all the cue sheet entries including custom ones. 

1. Is it possible to import a TCX file that I have downloaded to my computer (I assume route grabber gets a gpx file)
2. Is there another file format that can be downloadd from https://ridewithgps.com/ that does the same thing.

  Sorry I have now found how to upload a TCX file. But can you tell me if custom cues are read by the Karoo or does it ignore all cues and use it's own turn by turn navigation

  Hi Ian,

  Karoo doesn't support Custom cues as of now and use it's own TBT navigation.

  Support for Custom Cues is pretty much essential for navigation, and the Karoo 2 falls short of the competition in this regard. When riding routes of more than a couple of hours, it becomes useful to be able to add cues for features such as food and water sources, and checkpoints (for events).

  When will the Karoo provide support for Custom Cues (which are included in RWGPS routes)? Until it does, I would not recommend the Karoo as a navigation device. I continue to use the Wahoo Elemnt instead for longer routes (and not my new Karoo 2).
