I started reading your blog because you read Mel (boots and saddles) blog! <br /><br />Anyway, I have use the gps on my iphone too and have the same problems with it! Except that I don't lose gps signal when I lose cell service, in fact I get incredible signal on it.<br />BUT my rides tend to me longer then the battery life =(<br />Other then that I love it. I find the max speed to often be wrong as well, it can get a bit confused!<br /><br />For longer rides I intend on using a better GPS, but for short quick rides, I love the iphone!<br /><br />JaimeJBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13115540814717548371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8773599297895528113.post-9213277125636194382009-11-12T18:59:01.943-08:002009-11-12T18:59:01.943-08:00You speed demon! :OYou speed demon! :OFunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06358687366401205336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8773599297895528113.post-5501882414136859412009-11-12T07:59:38.933-08:002009-11-12T07:59:38.933-08:00GPS: yes, they sometimes get odd ideas.

Be especially leary of GPS data on cloudy days, because the satellite signal can "skip" on heavy clouds.<br /><br />I was out on horseback one time marking the 10-mile loop of a local endurance ride (sniff, when we had a local ride) and the GPS batteries were starting to fade a bit. VERY overcast. When I downloaded the info, my track went from a small loop around camp to a single point in the Yukon Territories, and back to camp. Average travel speed for the loop: 356 miles per hour.AareneXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17569818745110332355noreply@blogger.com
