Hi,  
Help needed if possible? If I’ve set strava to private, my rides don’t come through to TR. Is there a manual entry or way around this? Thanks  
Brad

Try exporting the ride from Strava, and import manually into TR.

Hi,  
I have got my strava to automatically sync but when I have recently set strava to ‘private’ they no longer sync TR. How can I do manual import to TR (from strava). I couldn’t find that on the help section. Thanks

Did you review the “ **Manually Import Your Rides** ” section in the link I provided?

- That animated GIF shows the process to import in TR.
- The only thing missing is exporting from Strava as your first step.

Here’s the GIF explaining how to do that. You’ll have to get to [Past Rides - TrainerRoad](https://www.trainerroad.com/career/brad1974/rides) and then click the “Import Rides” button.
