Really large jump...

[RAMANS]

So I was riding with my new 800 and got an output of close to 1451 miles on my 10 mile 2.5 hour mountain bike ride. I've tracked it down and it's at line 34730 of tcx file here: http://connect.garmin.com/activity/65947515

where you see this jump:

between trackpoints.

2 questions, any idea how it happened? and are there any tools out there that might be able to help me correct it? I don't relish the idea of hand editing the file.

Thank you!

Every now and then you'll get a rogue GPS point, although it seems to be happening on the 800 a lot lately.

If you post the tcx file, I (or many other people here) might be able to fix it.

It happened to me 2x now.

Yes. You can upload the tcx file to Basecamp and edit the data from there. You can then export it from there.

Hopefully, Garmin is listening.

I hadn't noticed that you supplied a link to your activity when I posted earlier.

I went ahead and downloaded a tcx file from your activity on GC and tried to fix it. The new activity is attached. Hopefully this will work for you. Give it a try.

Wow thank you! That worked, how did you do it if you don't mind my asking. I was looking at it with SportTracks but didn't see a way to re-export as TCX

thank you!
