Thanks so if want others to ride the same route and have the waypoints shown on their map in their garmin or Wahoo then GPX track is right?
I always thought a gpx route has a ride to be ridden and a gpx track is one that has been ridden - is that not right?

Thanks for the screenshots Oliver. You need to download it as a GPX Track not a GPX Route. A GPX Route file only contains waypoints, not the detailed coordinates of the track, so it can't be recreated in the same way when imported into another app.

Thanks for reply.
This is what it looks like in plotaroute. Which is good around 600m long.

This is the format I downloaded as

This is what it looks like in a 3rd party website - so most of the route is missing as its just 130m

I get the same on my garmin - you can see it is marked as 44m long only, all the other formats for the same route are okay on the Garmin as shown.

Sorry Oliver, I'm not sure what you mean. The GPS file for that route looks OK to me and uploads without a problem when I upload it to another application.
If you want to share images, you can just copy and paste them into into your post. Alternatively feel free to send us an image via our Contact Us page. You can only send one attachment at a time though using this, so if you have more than one, just send them in separate messages.

When the download a gpx route poi file I have created in plotaroute - it is not pulling the full route when I upload it to my Garmin - same issue if I load it into something like bikehike.co.uk
Why not working ciorrectly?
Can't see how I can add images to show you - but download the gpx poi file from below and you will see it does not take all of the route when you upload to any 3rd party app.
