i'm still not sure whether i like more garmin's summary or rwg's. i tried to frame them, but they don't fit on the screen. here are the links:
- garmin conncet
- ride with gps

IMO the Garmin site is much slicker, but the Bing satellite maps are shite (which might not be an issue). RWG has google satellite images, and topo imagery which in my area is better than any paper map you can buy

As I said, iframes don't work perfectly in VF - it would be nice if you could resize them a bit smaller but the code doesn't work.

maybe some chore for the admins, if they are listening

... no training today because i needed time to check something after work. i found out there's a gym in a close town where they started doing crossfit classes. i told myself i had to find out. the instructor wasn't there though, so i'll have to go back tomorrow. other good news is i will add more stuff to my personal home gym tomorrow.

the crossfit will be fun if it's indeed offered. and keep us posted as to what you add to your personal collection. what do you have in mind?

... busy sunday: i had to prepare and submit the written part of my functional training exam. it consists of a personal "one month training program" aimed at a specific, real or invented athlete. i chose to prepare a program for myself, with the target of training for a mountain bike marathon season. let's see what happens. new home gym pictures postponed

rb: 30,34km/31,80km ... garmin connect and ride with gps still give me very different stats, but i think the second is much closer to reality, for what i know about the routes i'm doing and because there is no way i rode so slow (accordingly to garmin) yesterday: 25,8 km/h!!! the stats:
- garmin connect
- ride with gps

Zorionak!

I guess the figure on your GPS unit will be closest to the truth (you might have to go into Settings to make it show avg km/h on screen); as you've noticed the different websites interpret the data differently (this is most apparent when looking at the elevation gain, but I'd always trust the GPS' barometric sensor over the website....)
