trying to make a TCX course on bikehike or plotaroute then uploading it into garmin connect

I'm using plotaroute or bikehike as I want to add course points which I cant do on garmin connect.

When I try and do a manual upload of the saved file to garmin connect though it fails. Its a TCX format file.

Any ideas?

sign up to gpsies website and upload the file. you can then convert it to pretty much any gps format. Like every other bit of software they make Garmin connect is rubbish. Sometimes files upload and other times they wont. Its very hit and miss. Just try a few times.

Correct.

Why are you using it at all? There are a ton of options out there.

I wanted to upload it to Garmin connect while I was at work (well, half working!) as I don't have the gps with me, then I was hoping I could just send it to the device from the app on my phone.

However as the woeful connect website wont upload my course i'll have to wait to get home and connect it up the old fashioned way
