443mph average speed on Endomondo today

[SteveBM]

Hi guys
I used the Endomono app for the first time today on an HTC Desire S.

I am really pleased with it but I seem to have some strange average speed anomaly, where it says I was doing 443mph for short burst today
Now, I was going pretty quick in some areas today, but I don't think I was going quite this quick!!

Has anyone else experienced this?
Am I doing something wrong?

Here's the link to my workout - Not sure if you'll be able to see the issue due to access privileges

Any thoughts appreciated....
cheers

There are some anomalies ....

When I compared an Edge 705 and an Edge 800 the front of my bike was not only faster than the back, but finished some 300 yards ahead!

I like to upload my GPS for a few sites and there can be a difference between Garmin Connect, Strava and RidewithGPS

The most I've ever seen on my old smartphone was 550mph - but that was sat on a plane on the way back from spain a couple of years ago

Ha, slowcoach, 514mph was my best

I've had it occasionally with Endomondo but not often. I assume it's just a glitch when the GPS loses signal monetarily and then regains it without compensating for the time loss.

Just my guess anyway, 99% of the time it tracks perfectly so you've probably just been unlucky hitting a glitch on your first go.

My Edge 500 once showed me cycling at 62mph whist I was filtering slowly through traffic.
It also once displayed a route whereby I cycled across many graves in a graveyard in the opposite direction to my real direction.

Thanks guys, sounds like I was unlucky this time. Will give it another go at the weekend

In the summer, my cateye had me doing 50+mph.





I was stationary at a red light at the time

Nobody likes a show-off

Well that beats me, I only managed 1001 mph on Thursday last week, although this was at an altitude of almost 4000 ft over London.....

We need a "we are not worthy" smilie, top work Sir

Good effort from anyuser above too, seems as if the bar has been raised to 1000mph plus to be worthy of mention

Looks like the phone lost GPS signal at mile 24 and picked it up again at mile 26 (see straight line through fields/houses).

Well done indeed! I did 65 miles per hour going under a bridge a few weeks ago, according to my wireless speedometer.

Maybe you passed a vehicle with a GPS jammer, read recently they are a growing problem.
