AeroPod, PowerPod and Newton

John,

Figured out that I probably messed up my profile by doing a bunch of "check calibration" tweaks so I decided to start over with a new "best accuracy" calibration ride.

The file, and the 16 mi ride following the calibration ride are attached. Would you give them a quick look and let me know what you see?

Also, this profile now reflects me finally taking off 15 lbs from the beginning of the season; I'm working to continue the trend. How much change in weight warrants tweaking the profile again with a new rider weight?

Thanks!

This ride file looks great!

Since you ride on very gentle hills, I would readjust your profile only every 10 pounds.

For example, on your ride, you can use the "Analyze/Analyze Bike Settings..." to change your weight by 10 pounds. You'll see that if you drop another 10 pounds, it has only a 2W effect on your total.

When you ride on the flats, weight has very little effect on overall watts.
