20.26 gps distance

I updated my 265 to 20.26 beta today and went for a bike ride.

I did 20.7km's but the watch only counted the whole workout has 4.7m's, the path was correct and all the rest of data was.

I'm sorry to hear about the inaccurate distance. Please read through GPS Drift and Environmental Factor Impact on GPS Accuracy, and then try the following for your next activities.

Enable secondary satellites if you have not already: INSTRUCTIONS
Perform a GPS soak (explained in the FAQ above):
- Select an activity.
- Wait for the GPS Ready message or GPS Indicator to turn green.
- Wait 2-5 minutes before you start the timer for your activity.
On the watch, hold the middle button and scroll to Settings > System > Data Recording. Change this setting to Every Second.

If you are still experiencing GPS issues, I suggest contacting Product Support directly!
