I can't add anything regarding the OP's question, but I can confirm that this phenomenon does take place. It occurred when I began mounting a second computer on my wife's bars on our tandems. Had me confounded for a few rides. I now splice the wires together, running both computers off of the output of one magnet/sensor.
I use ridewithgps, and it's probably the same in elevation reporting. When I ride over a bridge, it thinks I'm on the surface of the water, so it reports more descending and ascending than I actually do. |

Why does your wife want the computer, and do you both look at it and discuss the display.

No, we don't discuss it, she just likes to be able to glance down and see how far and fast, same as any other rider.

OK, I get that. Clever of you to hook it up that way, as well as considerate. I'll ask mine if she's interested. She kinda likes these gadgets. We started riding a tandem this year.
I believe you and I have met on Tom. McM's Croton Aqueduct rides. |

That should of course have been Tom McM, not "MoM":p
I've missed the last 2 also. First Dad's illness, then work. I'm going to try to not let that happen again. |

tell me more about this. The aqueduct is only a short ride across the grain from here.
PM sent. |
[MENTION=158672]FBinNY[/MENTION], it's a great ride. I don't remember the length, but it's not too much for me. The terrain is a bit of a challenge, especially on a road bike, which is all I ride, but I manage. It's fun. I hope you join us next year. It's held in October. I trust [MENTION=148196]kaos joe[/MENTION] will get you connected to the list.

Cyclemeter Elite
I've been using Cyclemeter for nearly 2 years now and I'm very pleased with the detailed data and relative accuracy when compared to my onboard computer. I have used other apps and have experienced almost constant irritation with the inconsistencies in those apps. Yes, I like some of the features of the more social apps but, to analyze data and track my progress, Cyclemeter is my app of choice. |
