error loading the GPX file

I have a problem with creating a route from external Gpx file. When I load a Gpx file in Connect, it shows me only the first 7/8 km of the route, ignoring the rest. Some of you have had this problem?

Looks like there were several huge time gaps, which corrupted the rest of the course. I imported your course into Garmin Basecamp then exported it back out and this corrected the issue. This should work…

Can happen when the source does not meet the criteria required for Garmin Connect. Please zip the GPX file and attach it here. We can take a look at it.

Hi! I'm having a similar problem with a GPX file that I downloaded from AdventureCycling. When I try to upload it on Garmin Connect, it tells me that there is something wrong with the file. Any chance I could send it to you as well?

Yes. Please do.

Thank you!

So, when I try to upload the file to the forum reply, nothing happens. I'm admittedly bad with technology. How do I send you a gpx file?

You'll have to first zip the file. If you don't know how to zip a file, then just rename the extension to "zip." Then, in a reply post Insert >> Image/video/file >> click Upload >> browse for file >> OK.

If that doesn't work for you, you can upload the gpx file to a file sharing service, such as OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, etc., make the file public, then paste a link to the file in your post.

I still wasn't able to upload the file here but hopefully this dropbox link works. Thank you for your help with this.

This looks like a collection of waypoints. No route or track.
