Hi,
I have completed a calibration ride and I'm not confident in the out come.
Can someone check the file please?

In general, to check a ride file I'd like to see a longer ride after the calibration, but this looks fine:
1) Wind speed is nearly identical to bike speed, so wind sensor is calibrated
2) Accelerometer hill slope on climb is 5%, elevation slope is 4.4%, so accelerometer is calibrated
3) all sensors are correctly paired
4) weight and CdA look correct

Thanks for checking.
I’m glad it all seems ok. I also ride a kickr indoors. I’m struggling to “calibrate” the power reading with the “effort” outdoors.
Outdoor power seems to be higher power recorded for a perceived effort. It could be all in my mind. I have done a spin down on the kickr.
I can send a longer ride When I get a chance.
I guess I should be happy to be on the bike rather than worried about technology.

I did a 50 km ride today. We had some rider issues so I have 3 files.
I have also combined my garmin file for you. The head unit had some troubles. We stopped twice and the head unit didn't pick up the power meter when I started again.
PLease have a look.
I'm confused about the wind data. There was no wind today however there was fog.
