I don't use .fit files. For me they are a nuisance that take up space on the 66i internal storage and have to be deleted with Windows File Explorer because Basecamp cannot delete them. But I'm curious about the rational for the feature that must have some use to someone. Indeed, 66i designers must have thought so. There's a binary option on the 66i to record either .fit files or. fit and .gpx, as if .fit would be the preferred choice for track recordkeeping and .gpx was an afterthought possibly useful to only a few people.
