GPX POI files.... How do I find them on my GPS???

I just downloaded all the H-D Dealerships from this forum:

I downloaded the software needed to transfer to my Garmin 660 GPS. On my computer I can see that they are loaded in my Garmin GPS, but when I turn on my GPS, where do I go to see them? How do I search for the hundreds of dealerships that were loaded?
On H-D specific GPS (also a garmin 660) they have a dealer locator that shows distance and direction to nearby dealers.
Will this file I downloaded do the same thing?
Sorry I am new to GPS. I've figured how to save and transfer the files and I have even created a map or trip through H-D rider planner, saved and loaded it on my GPS. That works. Now I just need to know where to find GPX or POI files I loaded on my GPS??
Thank you for any help.
Welcome to the site
To find the poi's that you loaded go to FIND LOCATION/arrow down to EXTRAS/CUSTOM POIS.
ou will generally see the 50 closets and the distances will be :as the crow flies".

You'd think they would make it a little easier to get to, but you have to go through a few clicks before you get there.
Be sure to tap Custom POIs

Welcome to The Factory and be sure to say hi to my brother in Antigo if you see him
A heads up that oftentimes confuses folks when starting to use Custom POIs:
when you get to the screen that says Custom POIs, your HD dealers won't be there under the Custom POIs line. You need to tap the Custom POIs line and that will bring you to your list of POIs loaded, currently just HD dealers. Tap it and you're ready to go to them.
