Create a Strava Heatmap Print

If you are wondering if you can create a print of all your Strava rides - then yes you can. Watch the video or follow on the below information.

Log into Strava and go to your profile > Settings > My Account - then scroll down to Download or Delete Your Account and click Get Started

You should hopefully see a Download Request (optional) section where you can request Strava send you all your data. Click that and a while later you will get an email with a zip file.

Unzip the file and you will find a load of .gpx files in the Activities folder. Load up our Map Designer and upload them the files. I'd recommend uploading them in batches of 50 or so... Our tool isn't optimised for quite so many files so with the upload process please just wait a few minutes and see what happens. It takes a little while for our website to process so many files.

Note: When I did it with 1300 files I had a few errors. I assume a couple of the gpx files had a glitch. Just ignore them. When you have so many a few missing files won't hurt.
