As has been said put everything on an external memory card, additional to this I also store the raw gpx files on the card in their own folder. This means that I know where they are and can be re-used if necessary.

I tend to leave the GPX on the PC and keep the processed .fit course files on the SD in another folder. On a long ride with many sections, say PBP, I will just leave the PBP-related .fit course files in the Courses folder. Means I don't have to scroll past a load of irrelevant rides when looking for next bit of the course.
I guess having the GPX there too could prove handy if you can get access to a computer on the road. Might do that as well, although I'm already carrying spare devices.
hippy
My 800 does the same, it's really annoying as you have to remember to turn it back down every time.
My 800 (which has generally been reliable) completely froze at the weekend, and in my attempts to turn it off I managed to factory reset it losing my GPX track, which in the middle of Dorset on a 300k was really fucking annoying!
Does anyone know if you can load courses onto the external memory card, or do I just need to buy another unit of some description as a back up?
