Yeah, I know I can do that. But ultimately, I'm really just doing two typical BF things - expressing curiosity and whining. The "average speed" is more or less a meaningless number, as others have said, and all the more so for rides with start/stops. You will always get different numbers if you don't have a universal method for establishing "moving time".
The summary value is the ones your friends see, and it's always lower than the one in the analysis section. NBD.
