    Sounds like an excellent test ride! Good luck and thanks for testing the app! Look forward to hearing how it went.

    So true. In practice the minor changes in assist during a segment tend to average out and are not a big needle mover. Yesterday she...

    No damage along the Klickitat river heading to Glenwood or south back to Lyle except for the last mile or so coming down Canyon Rd...

    Great question. Answer is Yes on the main climbs and descents. For those sections I could predict before the ride where I would change...

    Changed the start point so could end with some climbing. The estimator did a good job a predicting duration, average speed and ending...

    Sounds great, let us know how it goes. I am going to try a 75 mile/5000ft loop I have been eyeballing this weekend. The estimator...

    For sure, use the best assumption you have for model inputs especially those inputs which move the needle the most -rider input, assist...

    We've discussed the accuracy of this kind of modeling several times. A lot of the uncertainty comes down to how well really know certain...
