because we all love gear and data i downloaded my tracks. I also wanted to verify that i was always either climbing or coasting. no flats near my house.

i don't think the grades are right but the heights may be. i looked a the track on google maps and sometimes I am i the road, sometimes off as much are 30 ft (off the road) and then right back on. the speed and distances match my bell bike computer. my phone was in my bag not out in the open.

questions
also any way to plot the speed and elevation on Google maps.
or understand why my tracks breaks up the trip into 3 parts that are not where I stopped.

is elevation gain how much UP i went with no down.

can someone help me understand the elevation and grade, or should I assume that they are wrong due to gps issues.
