Hi All!
I uploaded the info off my Garmin Edge 305 from my ride yesterday using both Motion Based and Ascent (http://www.montebellosoftware.com/). It seems that there is a discrepancy in the total amount I climbed though...Motion Based says I climbed 5,133 ft. and Ascent says 4,139.6 ft., a very large discrepancy indeed.
There both really great programs, but which one is most accurate?
Thanks for any help!
*EDIT* Routeslip says about 4,293ft., so I'm leaning towards Ascent. I've also deleted the file for this ride. :/
