Calibration Question
Posted: Wed Nov 06, 2019 11:45 am
Hi,
I just got my powerpod and am very excited to start training with power. I did an out and back calibration a few days ago and then a short ride and I thought everything looked ok, but the out and back went much, much faster than the instructions said. It was nowhere near 5 minutes each direction. Then I did a ride today and the power data was definitely off. It was very windy today but I don't think that accounts for it. I'm thinking that perhaps my port was partially blocked for the calibration but it wasn't today. What would account for a shorter than normal out and back calibration?
I'm attaching the calibration file, the ride I did right after calibration, and today's ride.
Thank you very much for any help you can provide,
Joshua
