Step 3. View your saved route and choose the correct export file to download. The TCX option provides more information and will work on all Garmin devices.
 
  1. GPX: Route details
  2. TCX: holds more info like power, heart rate, cadence etc.

Step 4. When the file has downloaded, find it in the download folder and copy that into your Garmin which should be plugged into the PC. 
Find the folder NEW FILES and paste the saved route/file there and away you go
