Left my Edge running on my drive home

Former Member over 14 years ago

Hi

I left my edge 800 running on the way home from a cycling event on sunday. The result, as you might imagine, is that my ride data is corrupted with the data derived from the drive home. Can I delete all data collercted after I crossed the finish line?

Many thanks,

Jon

That's generally not an obvious or easy thing to do (although it's not necessarily hard, either, with the right tools). If you post the tcx file here, somebody here might be able to fix it for you.

DW152, thanks for your reply. How do I post a file? Here is a link to the activity can you take the tcx file from here? http://connect.garmin.com/activity/94965554

Many thanks

According to your notes, you finished the activity at 4:26:40, so I split the activity at that point (actually, 4:26:32 -- hope that's close enough). A compressed tcx file with that activity is attached. Uncompress it and upload it to Garmin Connect and let me know if that works.

Many thanks for that, you are a truly decent human being! I'm at work at the moment but I'll upload the file when I get home.

Thanks again!

I used your note of ride time 4:26:40 on GC and stopped your tcx file at 11:08:40 and got the following result.
Hope it fits what you remember.

Thanks Datezz for that, you too are a duly awarded the title of "truly decent human being"!

I'll have a look at both of the files and use whichever one fits best with my ride.

Out of interest - how do you do this stuff, is it possible on Garmins website or do you need special software / skills?

I did the same thing, left edge 800 on during drive home.

I did the same thing. I left my edge on during the ride home. What tool will split this, or is someone able to split it for me. I finished at 11:15 approximately.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I also did the same thing

Hey Guys I just completed my first 8 hour solo mtb race. somehow must have restarted my garmin 500 when I place it in the car. I have tried to fix it myself but its way above my computer skills my finish time was 7hrs 25 mins.
I'd love some help correcting this.

Thanks Dave
