Hi everyone,
I have today recorded a great 40 mile ride only to find that when I got home I couldn't sync the ride from my Garmin Edge 500 to Garmin connect or Strava, this has happened a few times (usually it syncs fine). In terms of how I use my Garmin Edge, I normally create a course manually on Garmin connect, upload it to my Gamin Edge and then complete the course with a virtual partner. When the course is completed and I plug in my Garmin into my macbook and on occassion I sometimes get the following error on Strava
"Not an activity - The problem is that your file is likely saved as a "Course" instead of an "Activity" file. These files most often come from Garmin devices - the Course files are used for navigation and Virtual Partner
purposes, and can be saved in either .TCX or .FIT format. Because these files do not necessarily reflect the recording of a real-world activity, they will be rejected upon upload"
This happens intermittently and not always. Does anyone else have the same issue? Is there anything Im doing wrong so that these are not being saved as normal activities? So frustrating to do a great ride and not be able to upload your results
Thanks in advance for your help
