Garmin 200 problem

[FlyingCyclist]

My new Garmin 200 says I cycled more than I actually did!
Link below. I started where I finished!

It's been fine so far, but today it had gone wrong. Something to do with the GPS?

GPS glitch. Rare to happen but can. Only worry if it does it a lot.

I sent my first 200 back. After 6 months as it wouldn't hold charge. The second one has been fine.

Might try another rider later and see if it does it again.

Was the display updating throughout the ride?

Yes, well I noticed the speed changing.

But when I stopped and started again, it took a few metres to realise I was moving again.

Did you stop for a break and stop the unit? Guess there will be many on here including me who has done this and forgot to restart the activity!

In the settings, I have Auto Pause turned in the On position.

Just about to go for another ride, see if it does it again.

Just been on the same route and it has worked properly this time

I had one glitch on mine where it said I had done an extra stretch at the end of a ride................. at 121.3mph !!!!

I do have one other problem.... I ticked a box on Garmin Connect so that it deletes the ride on the cycle computer so I can't upload it to Strava.

How can I un-do this?

On Garmin connect, export your ride to your computer as a txc file.
Then manually upload the tcx file to strava.

Maybe if I go on another ride and then connect it to the PC I'll get the option to change it. Hmmm

Well that was daft. I've found the option where you can set it to delete the ride after synching with Garmin Connect. The option is on Garmin Express and not the website where I've been looking.
