Silly STRAVA Racing

I notice that people can upload all the rides one has done onto one map.
Is that Strava or something else I am mistaking it with?

It's an external website that uses the historic ride data from strava.

Hmmm. Ride that route on my long way home, but turn off at Stannylands. Might need a 'detour' next spring when I start these routes again

Mmm there are quite a few interesting segments down Stanneylands Road as well

So I have to register to Strava. Download all my rides, put in my rider ID and Bob's your uncle..?

Yes. Might take a few years for all your 100 milers to upload to strava. Not sure if you can bulk upload to strava unless the rides are on the device - Someone here may know if the rides can be bulk uploaded from the PC.

Ah yes.. that is exactly what I am looking for

I finally nailed a segment that I have been after since I first ever signed up for Strava, I am very pleased indeed, which means no doubt that several people from the local bike club with now go out and annihilate my time

You got a Garmin Ian? If you have then it's far easier to bulk upload historic rides.

Here's a screen grab of the upload activity screen, does this help? I don't recall it being too laborious uploading all the rides I'd recorded on my Holux when I first signed up.

So... I upload my last 25 rides to the Garmin.
Upload the 25 rides from the Garmin to Strava.
Then load them to that other site?

Edit: Just looked at the screen grab again - no need for the garmin

OK-assuming it uses the same upload characteristics of the 705 then transfer your historic rides onto the garmin/history directory on the unit. Then do a normal upload per strava.

They have to be in tcx format iirc.

The "manual" method only allows one upload at a time.

I could be wrong (I don't have a Garmin), but I think that you download a browser addon that connects Strava directly to your Garmin and ba da bing ba da boom.
