About TUR files

The .tur file extension primarily acts as a Cycling computer tour data file associated with the HACtronic software, used to manage data from CicloSport cycling computers. It stores raw ride telemetry such as speed, altitude, heart rate, and cadence. Additionally, .tur is utilized as a Turing Machine simulation file in the educational Visual Turing software, or as a source code file for the Turing programming language developed by Holt Software. Users typically need to convert .tur cycling files because the format is highly proprietary and locked to obsolete desktop software. This creates a severe disadvantage for modern athletes who cannot natively upload these files to cloud-based fitness trackers or read them in standard web browsers. For cycling data, the most practical conversion targets are standard GPX or TCX files for importing into modern platforms, or CSV for raw spreadsheet analysis. If the file is a Visual Turing script, converting it to a basic TXT file ensures cross-platform readability, though interactive simulation features will be lost. This file format is difficult to open or convert because the HACtronic cycling data relies on closed, undocumented binary structures. Often, only the original software can properly read or export the data. However, drag and drop your file to see what it is and convert it if supported on convert.guru. If our analysis detects a supported underlying plain text structure or an embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.

Convert.Guru analyzes your TUR file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

The TUR Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our TUR converter.
