Hi,
I was competing in the WEMBO 24hr Solo World Champs over the weekend. Around 15 laps in i noticed my average speed was dropping when i wasnt going that much slower, and then i noticed that the GPS was saying i was down on one of the first climbs when i was at the top of the main climb. I tried pausing and resuming and couldnt get it to start working again so just used my computer as a glorfied heart rate monitor for the remaining laps.
Weirdly enough it continued to accumulate elevation just not distance.
Super disappointing as I geek out on ride data and now I have a dodgy set of data from one of my top 2 biggest rides.

First, NOICE!
Second, in my experience, if tech is gonna crap out on you, it’s gonna crap out on you when you want it the most. Had a PM die 15 kms in on my longest ever gravel event in Kansas, had my head unit (a Garmin Edge 5something at the time) glitch out during a basecamp Evereresting on a tiny hill that needed 300 reps.
Third, it might be worth contacting support to see if the data is in there somewhere and just isn’t showing up for you
Congrats on your massive ride! I’m assuming you weren’t able to dual record on your phone during the event?

I’ve seen many a Knighthood Do go up in flames on Mount Sufferlandria because of technology failures. BTW, this isn’t the only thing that is affected. One person was going for a Grand Fondo (120 km). Computer died halfway through and wouldn’t revive. The key: Prepare for and double record if possible. Phones are great for this. Strava can be your friend, sometimes. Also, there’s the Wahoo App.
