Starting a GroupTrack Session

Before you can start a GroupTrack session, you must have a phone with the Garmin Connect™ app paired to your device (Pairing Your Phone).

NOTE: This feature is required for group rides with the Edge® x30 series, and earlier bike computers.

For Edge 1040, 840, 540 and later bike computers, use the GroupRide feature (Starting a GroupRide Session).

  3. Select Start LiveTrack.
  4. On the Edge bike computer, press Start symbol, and go for a ride.
