Hi! Anyone using MapMyRide?
I just started using it and have been really discouraged by my MPH and distance -- But yesterday, I rode for an hour and it said I rode a total of 2.86 miles and was riding at under 3 MPH -- that's slower than I walk! So I pulled the trail map, and I know it was AT LEAST 9 miles of trail I covered. This seems more realistic to me.
So my question is -- anyone know what's going on with my app or how to correct it?

    I haven't in a long time, but I don't remember it being all that fussy. You mention a trail map... could it be that your phone didn't have good sat/gps signal? I doubt it's the app, but you could try running Strava at the same time and comparing numbers.

    What do you have your GPS on your phone set to - the 'location' setting? I have to have mine set to high accuracy (the top setting) to get good numbers from all of the MapMy* applications.
