Welcome to the forum @Sezzy. Which Echelon bike did you get?
Still trying to figure this out myself and thinking to go with this solution for now.
Is it an option you would consider?:
"There is no way to sync your cycling to the watch. What I do is just start my garmin cycling activity when I start pedaling. And I later sync the garmin to my Garmin account.
What I think you're looking for is this:
Automatically Sync with Garmin Connect

Automatically Sync with Garmin Connect
- From the Garmin Connect mobile app:
- If your Garmin device is Bluetooth-enabled, you can download the Garmin Connect mobile app, create a Garmin Connect account, and link to your Strava account by going to Settings > Partner Apps > Strava.
- Accept the "Upload your activities from Garmin Connect to Strava" permission when authorizing accounts.
- Disabling this permission will prevent past and future activity sync.
- Once activities are wirelessly uploaded to Garmin Connect via Bluetooth, they will appear on Strava a few moments later.
- After your first upload, Garmin will also sync your past 90 days of activity to Strava.
- Using Garmin Express:
- To upload using your computer, download and install Garmin Express and follow instructions to add your device.
- On the Strava website, visit strava.com/upload/device and find the Garmin option to authorize a link to Strava.
- Once you've established this connection, any new activities uploaded to Garmin Connect™ will automatically sync to Strava. After your first upload, Garmin will also sync your past 90 days of activity to Strava."
