Sending Courses From Ride With GPS To Your Garmin Device

Garmin offers the ability to sync routes from your Ride with GPS account to your compatible Garmin device via the Connect IQ Ride with GPS App. For non-compatible devices a course can be synced with your Connect account after linking it to your Ride with GPS account. Once you've enabled this feature, you can pin your favorite routes in your Ride with GPS account and they will be sent to your Garmin device.

NOTE: Enabling this feature will only prompt new pinned routes to be synced. If you have old pinned routes, you will need to un-Pin and re-Pin the routes after connecting with your Garmin Connect account.
