Edge data analysis

I have a Garmin Edge 305. Up until recently, I had only used the Garmin Training Center software for uploading and analyzing my rides. However, a friend of mine pointed me to Sport Tracks (SportTracks) which allows a much more in-depth analysis of your data than Training Center. Plus, it's free. I was just wondering what software others are using, and how do you like it?

I started with the Garmin Forerunner 305 and now ride with the Edge 705. I had been using the Garmin Training Center exclusively which was fine when MotionBase was still around. When MotionBased was changed to GarminConnect, I went looking for something new. I too came across Sport Tracks and I can't imagine anything better. I have even begun using the equipment feature to track how many miles I have put on tires and tubes and I can actually track the lifetime of new components I put on my bike. The data is good to, plus you can manually enter data if something is incorrect which Garmin Training Center doesn't allow.

If you find something better then Sports Tracks, please come back and post because I am always looking for better software.

I like the looks of SportTracks but the map won't show up.

I have had Sporttracks for a year now and it seem every time I use it I find a new function or a new way to display data and get something new from it. I don't donate often but just this weekend fessed up some bux for this.

All this to say I had the same problem and when I figured it out felt pretty stupid !
