Cycling adding thousands of steps and not recording all of my ride.

[Hoopajoob]

As the subject says I rode my normal almost 13 miles to work today and when I arrived I already had over 5k steps...  I might of had an actual thousand.  So what's going on there.  I'm choosing cycling in the exercise area sooooo I would assume it knows that's what is going on and shouldn't add steps.

My other gripe is some of my rides seem to drop out saying I have one 2 mile ish trip and a 2nd 7 mile trip instead of one normal almost 13 mile trip..

Hi @Hoopajoob - if the GPS drops out [and it can] it will stop recording that information. On a Sense there is no possibility to use or also use phone GPS.

It is possible that any or all vibrations are counted as steps. You can test this by selecting driving as exercise instead, that shouldn't count steps and see if it makes a difference.
