But yeah, that one I'd be more likely to believe, its a slight downhill that I like to do my best impression of pounding out. Interesting how much smoother yours is, though, do you have the actual Strava app? I'm wondering if a lot of my jaggedness is because I have a third party app that uploads my data to Strava in GPX form.
Really, I just like it for YTD mileages and general trends in improvements as the season progresses. I know I'm not winning any KOMs. It was cool to log the actual route of my tour, too.
I was recording straight to the Strava app on my phone, but I think the issue you're having is not the 3rd party app, but the quality of the GPS connection. As I said, it looks like typical dropouts, and there's nothing an app is going to do about that.
Thanks for posting the data, though, because it turned out to be a perfect illustration of my point: you weren't lying about anything, but yet the data revealed an incomplete understanding behind what you were trying to say.
Trust, but verify!
