I have a polar F3 (?) mounted on my handlebars. It is wireless and has seemed to work well this season. Yesterday I made my usual ride home and instead of 14 miles it said I rode 20. I cant find anything wrong, right bike etc. Any ideas?

Have you checked the wheel circumference that was originally put into the computer?

Have you changed wheels or tires?

That's been the only times I have had problems with my polar 725, but it's been awhile now since I have used it. I now own a Garmin 305.

I think I should have bought a Garmin. I will check the wheel size, I have not changed the wheels on the bike but there are a bunch of bike nuts in my office that might have readjusted it, they are real funny guys. I park it by the back door and cant actually see it all the time. They hid my bike once. The police (federal officers) thoght it was real funny.
