When I come back from a ride and plug my Edge 705 into Training Centre it takes 23+ minutes to upload the data from the ride.
Have I got a setting where it is uploading all my previous activities and this is why it takes so long?

    You do delete data occasionally?

    I clear a lot of mine every few weeks and it only takes seconds to upload into Training Centre.

    You could try the Garmin site or send them an enquiry, always found Garmin customer service very helpful

    Never deleted anything!

    I'll give it a try, thanks binsted :)

    I tend to save all the folders and files onto a folder on my desktop, then delete saved rides from the 705, on a fairly regular basis.
    Usually do it once a month.
    At least then you have saved all data, should you ever get bored and want to peruse previous rides.

    Save all rides to Garmin Connect or similar. You can export them again later if you need to but they are stored there. As above delete regularly. If the memory is very full it takes ages to check it all for new rides. I seldom have more than 6 in my 500. It takes about 30 seconds to upload rides.
