I just completed a 70 mile indurance bike ride, my Blaze said I burned 1600 calories. It maped the route OK, and my heart rate OK, but the calories are way off. Should be at least 4600.

Given the blaze is primarily a step tracker, it struggles a bit with non-step activities, biking included. Im not surprised you don't get the right calories burn for a 70 mile ride. I struggle to get sensible figures on a 25 mile ride or 30 minute row. Thankfully I have alternative sources of info for those activities and just manually change the activity in my dashboard.
