I bought a Proform TDF trainer several years ago and have had little issue with it until lately. I used the IFIT site to draw maps for several years and it worked well until this last month. I can only download one route that is a [censored] route only six mile long. The bike comes with some pre-loaded routes 9-11 mile long and can be ridden manually but I can't download routes that I drew and have used for years.
The bottom line is that they want me to upgrade now and want money. Can I afford it, yes but it is the old bait and switch.
IFIT is not a good site either way and I would not recommend IFIT for use with hardware. The trainer is a good piece of equipment and works well for me but IFIT sucks. I may explore hacking the console and reprogram it. I am the end user so they can eat my shorts as far as any legal issues involved in doing this.
RANT OVER!

4. Something...something...hardware-software conflict.
5. Layer dude is going for blood Perry Mason style! Lookout!So...are you shopping for a new rig from TACX or going with some new power meter/STRAVA based thing?
