This is not strictly motorcycle related...

I use my GPSmap 64s when on the trails with the motorbike and when on foot, hiking.

I almost exclusively use tracks when offroad.
Now, when walking and "navigating" a track ("go to" > track) it would be interesting to be warned when there is a major turn.

My micro-Garmin Edge 25 that I use on the pushbike does this, when there is a turn that is >45 degrees (more or less :D ) it will "beep" and warn you beforehand.
It doesn't have any maps, but you can load a track and it will make you follow it like a breadcrumb and its proved, in its simplicity, more than enough to cycle through long routes across London multiple times over the last few years.

Can the GPSmap do something similar?
Or shall I manually drop alerted waypoints along the major deviations on my tracks everytime?
