Is this ground wind analysis correct?
Posted: Thu May 19, 2016 11:26 am
I did a ride on a pace line today and when I did the Analyze Route today, Isaac calculated an average ground wind speed of -8.9 mph. I did tick the "Drafting In This Ride" box. Since this was a very early morning ride, I know there was no ground wind to speak of.
A screenshot of the Analyze Wind dialog result is attached. As far as I can tell, the wind speed went to zero either when I was on the front of the pace line or when we were climbing and there was no aero shelter to speak of from other riders.
Is this the correct outcome for the Route Analysis or Wind Analysis that I should expect for such a ride? Or should I be changing the average wind speed offset to correct for this?
Thanks, David
