CALI ride and 1 after. Is it OK?

[TonySJ]

Hi,
I've not used my PowerPod for a long time, possibly 2 years, but have a new road bike so I thought Id try and get using again.
I've done a few CALI rides, 3 or 4, but power numbers seemed way high.
I think I've sorted it as it wasn't level on the mount but still the power numbers seem a little high.
I'm 79kg, bike is 8.5kg, with an FTP of 210W, 1.78 tall ride on the hoods on 28mm tyres with butyl inners.
CALI ride is on a flat road other than the first 100m were there's a slight incline and at halfway I had gone round a small roundabout before it counted to 50. I stopped went round the roundabout again before going back along the mainly flat road. Not much wind on this ride, dry and sunny.
The PP after the CALI ride appeared to be displaying reasonably accurate power numbers but after the first ride after the setup and CALI ride it appears a little high for the Watts and lowish speeds.

I've posted both rides and hopefully they can be checked please.

Any further info please ask. Thanks
TonySJ.

Here is how you can check things:
