I took the 800 with me instead of the 830. When I got back and "sync'd" it, it doesn't show a Sunday ride. If I unplug the 800 and look in history, today's ride is there. So how do I get it to load into the record?

Are you in a 'Garmin upload black hole'?

Go to garmin connect website and log into your account. Connect your edge 800 to a USB port. The Edge will pop up in your file system as a drive called GARMIN. In the file structure there should be a folder activities which will contain your ride as a fit file. On the Garmin Connect site in your account you can upload that fit file (cloud symbol in the upper right corner with an arrow pointing into that cloud symbol). Follow the instructions on the screen. Or.... you can try to sync it again with Garmin Express tomorrow.

Tom, you might see if there's a way to convert the .fit file to a

Can you or anyone else know how to change the mileage into a cycling mileage?

I don't use Garin Connect (other than to pass my rides to
RideWithGPS), but when I look at an activity on it I see a drop
down at the top left that has all kinds of activity types. I bet
you could just change it there.

could search for "other" and replace it with "road cycling" (or
whatever is correct) and upload again.

One will be the adventure ride over Redwood Rd. and Skyline and back home which I would guess from this point to be 45 miles or so. The Thursday Ride will be around 36 miles unless I decide to make it a real killer ride down Niles Canyon and back via Palomares Rd. The Alameda County site says that Palomares is closed but it isn't since I drove up to the winery there to pick up a case of wine. They could not possibly keep that road closed because there are so many private homes there on both sides of the peak. So I am liable to have a higher than 600 mile month. This may not be all that far compared to Lou but he's still a punk kid.
