Just noticed some of the numbers are off on Strava. Avg speed was 15.42 and max was 33.8. Wonder why Strava got it wrong?
I notice that different instruments and different websites will give slightly different results. Strava thought your ride time was slightly greater - probably a different interpretation of when "stopped" and "started" is. There's a setting in your Garmin for that. I think they ship with less than 2 mph counting as stopped. I set mine so that "stopped" is stopped. But that's probably different with different units.
161 watt average seems more probable, and therefore 804 calories. Still an impressive burn for that time period.
