No worries – Strava has a “refresh my achievements” tool. Just one thing to sort out – all of the PRs I got on today’s ride (and there were a few) were recorded as second places by the second upload. I then deleted the original (short) ride from Strava and re-uploaded. it would probably have worked with my edited files but I could also merge them in the GPS Track Editor… To edit a GPX file, open it and you will see its tracks, routes, and waypoints. I also tried merging the files with a tool from – unfortunately, that ended up with a ride that was effectively double the length of what we rode (two loops). GPS TrackMaker is a free software to create and edit GPX files. Using this, I could edit Andy’s data to just the part I had missing, then combine it with mine and merge the two tracks (the short gap doesn’t matter – Strava will straight-line the route between the two points).

Luckily, Andy was also riding with a Garmin bike computer. Unfortunately, my ability to “press the start button on my Garmin cycle computer” is clearly less good – I was about a mile from home and heading out of town when I realised I’d forgotten to start tracking my ride! It seems my route planning is pretty spot on, as it was almost the exact opposite of a charity ride going the other way around (we passed the same riders twice!). My friend Andy and I put in 60 miles in the sunshine, on a big loop around Milton Keynes. This morning was spent on my bike… as was a fair chunk of this afternoon… as is a fair chunk of many summer weekends, much to Mrs W’s disappointment.
