No Map Data / Inaccurate Goal Info

Former Member

Hello,

This weekend I took part in a cycling event that saw me ride over 100kms on day one and 45kms on day two. I used my Garmin Edge 205 to track both days and everything appeared to work fine.

When I plugged in to upload, day one was missing the map data. I read through the FAQ and saw this:

Why don't some activities have a map and route associated with them?
Activities don't have accompanying maps and charts/graphs due to a variety of reasons:

1. The activity may have been recorded indoors (i.e. a gym workout) where GPS tracking is not possible.
2. The activity may have been recorded using a non-GPS device.
3. The activity may have been created without a device altogether (Manual Activity).
4. The activity owner may have uploaded a large history from a device. In this case, older activities on a device have been compressed without any GPS data.


Now, since this was outdoors and not manually created, all signs point to #4 but this is a brand new activity, not an old one. My question is, would this happen to a new activity if the device is full? If so, could I manually delete old activities on the device itself? And lastly, is there any way to get the map data from this new activity?

In a possibly related note, my goal for the month isn't reflected properly, being short the amount from the activity that has no map data. I found it strange since even though the activity has no map data, it still shows the distance cycled.

Thoughts on this at all?

    So I figured out how to clear out old activities from my device but that didn't seem to help recover the map data. When I look at the activity on the device itself, it shows the laps as points on the map but no trail from point to point. Sadly, I think that data is gone and that's a shame.

    I also figured out the inaccurate goal info...just a dumb mistake on my part by mis-labeling the event.
