Subject: Route mileage way off for long ride?

Over the weekend I did a bike ride which, when I synced by Forerunner up with MotionBased, was 87.55 miles.  However, when I uploaded it into BT it came up as a number of separate legs totalling 27.13 miles.  Any thoughts as to why?  I've attached the GPX file from MotionBased for reference.

Edit: The GPX file (even compressed) is too large to upload.

Thanks!

The file has to consist of 1 track segment, rather than multiple segments.

Thanks Mike, I removed the extra segment breaks and it worked fine.  Do you know how the segment breaks get in there?  I know that I did not stop/start the recording on my Forerunner hat may times, or at those particular distances.

Thanks!

I'm not sure how their software works. My Timex BodyLink finally died, I guess it's time to buy one of these things so I'll have something handy to work with.

Yeah, that's it. "Honey, I had to buy it for the site". Money mouth
