Bike to Pool, Swim, Bike Home -How to Save on Watch

Hi there,

1st post :)

I just got a 935 and I am wondering how to do the following in order:
  • Start a biking activity (bike commute begins to the pool)
  • Pause the biking activity (arrive at the pool)
  • Start the pool swim
  • Stop the pool swim and save
  • Resume bike activity and save when I get home.
I selected "resume later" once I biked to the pool but I wasn't able figure out how to start a pool swim without fully stopping/saving the bike ride. Basically I want to record my bike commute to the pool and back home as 1 single activity (1 loop) with the pool swim.

Is this possible?

Thanks

    I don't think this is possible, but you could record your bike-swim-bike as a one multisport activity.

    One way to do this is to use a Hot Key. By default the down button (bottom left) is a Hot Key to change the activity type. The best way to track an activity like this is to:
    • Start a cycling activity and ride to the pool
    • Pause activity
    • Press and hold the Down button
    • Select Pool Swim (select Pool size)
    • Press start and complete your swim
    • Pause activity
    • Press and hold Down button
    • Select Bike
    • Press start and ride home
    • Press Stop and save
    This will create a multi-sport activity with your bike-swim-bike.

    Another option would be to create a custom Multi-sport activity profile where the activities are bike-swim-bike. More information about this can be found in this manual link.

    Even this will not combine the two bike sessions into one. You will end up with two bike activities and one swim. You’d need a 3rd party app to combine the two bike sections.

    Fitfiletools online will do this
