Try  GoldenCheetah_v3.7_x64Old.AppImage which is the version build using the same libraries as v3.7 release, the other is experimental and it have some issues on older systems.

I can confirm that the map is back using  GoldenCheetah_v3.7_x64Old.AppImage

Hi,
I confirm also that GC_v3.7_x64Old.AppImage resolves the problem of map.
I think that this version is based on Qt5.
But my laptop is based on Qt6 (see my_laptop_configuration.txt attached).
So the Qt5 based versions gives some crashes (see some logs files attached).
the previous version I had (GC_v3.7_x64Qt6_AppImage) had not the new Calendar, but gives less crashes on my laptop.
So, for the moment, I choose x64Qt6_AppImage which gives me less trouble.

Currently there are no Qt6 based GoldenCheetah binaries available for Linux, the one I created offline was removed and ci builds use Qt5, I have the intention to upgrade them but there are some platform limitations yet.
WRT your issues may be others may help you, I will take a break.

No problem Ale
Funny to know that I have a binary that had been removed !!!
I keep it preciously for the moment !  
I will continue to explore GC, this awesome software.
Crashes are not really a problem for me.
I will explore linux forums to learn the subtilities of this operating system and the world of debugging...
With my limited programming and computer skills, this could take a long time.
Thank you very much
