Edge 500 to Strava - not syncing

I got an Edge 500 today, set it up, setup my Garmin Connect account, and linked to it from Strava. Sorted - so I though.

 

Head off on my ride, got back just now, sync'd with my PC to Garmin. Activity shows up on the web perfectly. But not sync'ing to Strava.

It has been an hour now and Strava is still not reflecting my ride.

 

Anything else I can do to initiate a sync?

go to your 'account setting' in strava.  under social connections cehck if garmin is showing   as 'connected' .  if connected, try disconnect and connect again?

Tried that. No joy still ):

Check to see if your garmin connect rides are set to public - or seen by everyone. Strata won't sync them automatically if they're set to private. Which is the default setting it seems.

Was set to "Only Me". Changed to "Everyone". Will see what happens after Big Red Barn tomorrow.

 

Thanks for the heads up bud.

You would think when setting up the connection, they would point you to privacy settings. Oh well, thankfully there are people like you lurching about with the relevant info :)

Ya I was super annoyed with the logic too. I only know because i had this exact problem two nights ago. So timing was good:)

Just got back from big Red barn. Had 2 rides out there.

Plugged Edge 500 into PC, and boom. Sync to Garmin and to Strava in seconds.

 

You're the boss dude!
