I screwed up whenI turned on my Garmin as I did my ride this morning and I recorded nothing.
What I want to do is to take the same ride I did today but from a different day, duplicate that ride, change the date and use that for my today's miles. (I didn't do anything heroic so the specifics are not critical.)
But I can't figure out how to export the data from a single ride. Is there a way? If so, how?
If you have a Garmin Edge and it is attached to a computer, you can find completed rides in the Garmin/Activities folder, either on the GPS or its microSD card. Each ride is stored as a .fit file with a name based on the date of the ride.
In RWGPS, you can use the Upload tab to upload the .fit file and then edit it. You may need to convert the ride into a route to be able to modify where you rode.
Gary,
Something I've done in the past is go to the ride that you want to export on the website, click the EXPORT tab in the right side panel.
TCX History is the format you want to export for this ride. It will download to your computer somewhere, likely the Downloads folder.
Click on UPLOAD on the website and upload that TCX file that you just downloaded.
This will create a duplicate of the ride with the same metrics and date from which you exported, but changing the date is super easy.
While viewing the duplicate ride, click EDIT in the right side panel.

If you can't get it to work, contact our support team at info@ridewithgps.com and they'll get you squared away.
Thomas, I was able to do that, thanks!
In the past, the Export tab was alongside the Overview and Metrics. But after the change (website update) it was dropped bellow the other two and I just completely overlooked it. My bad.
Your suggestion made me look for it again and after Exporting the ride I opened it up in TextEdit, and did a global change of everything from 2018-07-13T to 2018-08-06T, Saved that, re-imported it, and done!
I now have my miles that I needed, again thanks!
