I'm assuming you want to load the file on as a route for you to follow. If so then when the Garmin is connected to your machine drop, the GPX into the New Files directory (the Garmin should show up as a drive on your computer while plugged in). Next time you start the Garmin the track will be there as a route.

try using something like [url= http://www.gpsies.com/convert.do?language=en ]www.gpsies.com[/url] to convert the file you downloaded to a TCX then drag it into the folder on the 800

If that doesn't work then try loading it into bikehike.co.uk then saving it to the Garmin.
