Is it just slightly inaccurate segment-making which means that my starting and stopping the Garmin at the start and finish lines did not follow it exactly?
Well, it is always a matter of finding likely matches between your ride's inexact GPS trace, and existing segments, which themselves are based on other people's inexact GPS traces. The variances aren't necessarily at the segment endpoints.

This bit if I had to guess, yours is the top and the segment route is the bottom one. Could also be starting and stopping so close to the segment start and end, there's a short segment near me that regularly doesn't register if I turn off onto the cycle path 1-2 meters before the end.

Could anyone help explain why this segment:

Does not show up on this ride:

Which I did this morning? Is it just slightly inaccurate segment-making which means that my starting and stopping the Garmin at the start and finish lines did not follow it exactly?
It's a shame and this haasn't happened before. Can it be done retrospectively without me having to ride that horrible course again?
