I'm thinking a can of baked beans may allow me to match your iron induced edge! However my plan could back fire so to speak...

If you use the Search function and type Winnats in the box, and just have the Profiles option selected, you should get this:

The default session search is for 3D AND Video sessions. Most likely there will not be any video session available, so try to uncheck "Video" when searching.

I've updated the Start Times to include the Spinach/Snickers factor...

Before I got a new Pro with the new firmware, I used to have much higher power readings. Something like 50 watts more than now, so I think it depends on which Pro and firmware you have.

A friend of mine has a pair of Garmin Vectors and he consistently read 30 Bkool watts too much on climbs and 30 Bkool watts too little on flat sections.

We have the same setup, except I had mine calibrated by Bkool. I think mine is accurate on both climbs and flat section, that is, after about 20-30 seconds when the Pro's resistance settles.

I don't know what model pro I have, it's about 18 months old, but I believe it has the latest firmware. Just briefly looked at our last couple of rides together. We do similar times, have very similar watt/kg but my power is slightly higher. I weigh 81kg so if I take it you weigh 3-5kg or so less the power figures would seem to be about the same.
