Everytime i choose to upload an activity to Strava it takes minutes (about five minutes or more) in the "searching for activities" phase, to bring up all the activities that i presume are saved/recorded on my Garmin (500). The very top one is generally the one i wish to save. Once the activities are displayed all the saving etc happens at lightening speed. It just the finding of activities that takes forever.
Does anyone share this issue?
If so, have you overcome in and how?
I have a relativity new laptop with higher processor speed. i have shut down and rebooted and tried just about everything i can think of. I am at the point of pluging in and going off to make a coffee.
Any Thoughts?
cheers

Uploading activities to Strava - very slow
Dougie,
If your Garmin is loaded up with other ride data, Strava (or Garmin Connect) needs to scan through all your rides then select what to upload.
I manually pick my latest rides and upload them that way. Otherwise delete your old ride data if you don't need it and you can auto upload much quicker.
Hope that helps.

ditto with the problem. but it gets worse the more data i have. so i'm assuming it looks through all the stuff to figure out whats new.
when i figure out how to read the garmin data and make it useful then i might start deleting old rides

I upload all my rides to both Garmin Connect and Strava. I see this as essentially 'backing up' and so can delete the rides off my Garmin. I have no problem with speed and do this once a fortnight or so.
I have no idea if I can download anything from either of these websites in the event I want to transfer them to a third but I guess it's just like Facebook whereby if it ceases to halt activities (or goes broke) then oh well.
