Cycling Segments

Former Member

Using a Edge 500.

I've created a few segments that are in my usual route and it logs my time through these segments but on the leader board there are about 26 other people that have posted times but my name doesn't show up, only when I select "Me Only" do all my times show in a table. Plus when I look at my ride with all the info it shows me passing through my segments with the time but next to it is a little yellow icon that says "null" and a explanation of my time says "This ride put you on a overall rank of null"

So why isn't my time been put on the leader board? I've tried every setting possible to no avail. Also I cant even delete segments that I have created.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks
  • Since my rides are locked its normal that i will not be shown but I have the same problem with deleting Segments. I cannot delete them.
  • Yes. I don't have access to the modern Garmin Connect yet, but it sounds like the problem is that your activities are not visible to Everybody.

    As for deleting segments, I'm surprised that Garmin even offers that option. Imagine that I create a segment and have the fastest time. Eventually someone overtakes my time and I delete the segment out from under them. Not fair.

    ok thanks I'll try to set my rides so everybody can see then, will update.
  • I don’t think that’s the problem, because there is a new settings for ’show my actives in segments’.

    I just think it's a bug, just like the NULL-message in the segments list ohm the activity page.

    It would appear that you have to make your activity visible to everyone. You can't do this just be changing the settings, this only affects activities from that point forward. You'd need to go back and unlock all of them one by one through the "edit feature".

    You also need to have "Participate in Leaderboards" checked in the settings as well.

    Do all of that and your segment times should appear.

    I shall now go off and create a bizarre segment that no one else will follow so that I can stay top of at least one leaderboard!
    :p
  • I just looked around the new site and in conclusion it is a disaster. Buggy, slow....even the look and feel is just not up to par with the clean look other sites are using.

    1) creating segments: Absolutely horrendous...you cannot pinpoint your start and end accurately (especially if the segment goes in 1 direction and then the other...for example if you go to a dead end and then back)...if you adjust the start or end, the whole thing just disappears...terrible.
    2) Once you save the segment,the results are not displayed (yes all the rides are public and I opted in to segments)...how did this pass testing?
    3) content is displayed in wrong places (site within a site). I was hoping Garmin would come out with something good with the quality of the original site.

    Garmin, what happened? You had a chance to do something about strava, but now I am not sure its going to work. Looks like another outsource disaster.

    Just throw this thing away and buy Strava. It will cost you less in the end. And whatever company you used to write this new site should be ashamed of themselves.
  • I'm still looking for how to create a segment with the garmin connect, someone would have a tutorial on how to do this, my connect.garmin the page has not changed, has anything to do

    Same here, i can't create a segment also neither do I have the new lay out. It is all still the same.
