Ride interpretation

Don't quite know how to interpret this ride file. It is an out and back ride. The out leg I pulled the entire time, and drafted the entire back leg. Wind was 3 mph from the north (tail wind out leg, head wind back leg).

I was expecting the ride file to reflect drafting for half of the ride, and the wind levels do not appear to jive with the conditions on the ride.

Please do a solo out and back ride. It doesn't need to be very long; a few miles will do.

Your 11/24 ride looks perfect. Nothing needs adjustment.

On your 11/23 ride, you had a "tailwind" the entire return portion, due to your drafting.

Thanks John,

Guess I was expecting to see orange “drafting” indicator the entire return leg. Also did not understand the high indicated wind speeds. Is that an artifact of drafting?

Regards,

John
