Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Roadies: Your Garmin Training Center Graphs Hard to Read Sometimes?

I am posting this in the road forum since we typically have more sensors to view data for, so this seems to be more of a problem here:

Any way to manipulate or change the graphs/scale height for each data piece in Training Center? When using multiple instances of data output, sometimes they are on top of each other and hard to read (i.e. speed & HR). I didn't have this problem much with my old Polar software, and when I did, I could change the scale. Any ideas? It's pretty irritating.

The Training Center zoom function is implemented very poorly. I haven't found a good workaround yet.

Wow, I am surprised this isn't a touchier subject. Apparently you guys may use an alternative to TC? I know there's Motion Based but I want a software solution without a monthly fee, preferably free. What's the alternatives? I'll do a search and see what I can find, otherwise I'll post a new thread about alternatives when this thread dies out.

MB is free unless you specifically sign up for the premium version. What are you looking to get out of the program? I upload rides to MB for sharing, but I log at https://www.bimactive.com which is free.

SportTracks, it's free and will directly import from the Edge 305/205.
