The default setting for the etrex is to archive tracks daily which means that it splits rides that go over night. I join these either by text editor or in Basecamp. The last couple of rides I've done (a 400 and a 600) have split into three despite taking place within 2 days. Whilst all doable in truth it's a bit of a faff and when I joined the 3 tracks from the Dragons and Legends this weekend I seemed to have lost a couple of KM from the total. I wondered if there's a way of avoiding all this,
Query 1 - is there a reason why it should have suddenly started to split it into 3?
Query 2 - what are the consequences of changing the archive setting to 'when full', will it cope with a 400 or 600 without splitting it?
