Forgive me for being slow on the uptake, but...

Once I am at the start of the ride, the computer recognizes the location and starts the turn-by-turn navigation.

Unless I'm not getting it, these two assertions are contradictory. I currently do the first, i.e. make up a route on my laptop and then upload it to my Garmin 800. It's there waiting for me under "Routes" if I want to use it. No pressing "go" on a cell phone is involved in the process.

So with the Lezyne Mega XL, do you have to press "go" on your cell phone to use an uploaded route when you go on a ride? Or not?
