I've tried twice to get a TCX course I created in RWGPS into Garmin Connect, no luck but I think maybe something odd with the RWGPS file as I've done TCX successfully. Will play around tomorrow
If I was buying new and just wanting cycling, I'd get a Bolt in a heartbeat. The company seems responsive to user problems, unlike Garmin, even though I am very happy with my 810.
Hi Steve,
I've tried the Elemnt and am very impressed! What you say about the responsiveness of the company is spot on! I was very impressed with their responses.
The Elemnt lets you import files from a number of sources. My preferred is OSMand - I've been using it for a few years. I create the route, save it, transfer it to the Downloads folder on the phone, open it in the APP (currently an internet connection is required for this step), then using Bluetooth transfer to the unit.
But I've also imported Ridewith GPS routes and other miscellaneous tracks with no issues whatsoever.
Once the need for interent connectivity is dropped, this will work exactly as I need it.
Many thanks for your input
Frank
