      @sartoric thanks
      I edited the activity, at least the data is now correct again and I do not have anymore a walk of 1100km in 5h 😊

        Hi,
        I have a similar problem on my 9 Baro. I noticed that my recorded route has errors. Upon close examination, I found that this has been happening since March and only on the bike. Maybe it’s been wrong even longer, but I’ve only been on the bike in March šŸ™‚
        It’s hardly noticeable in the Suunto App . I noticed it on the Sport Tracker website (see pictures)
        I’m posting a link to one activity. It happens at time 3:16:07.
        https://www.suunto.com/cs-cz/move/pavlas2/604caca9f024d82358e34632
        Any ideas?
        I have the latest firmware.

            @pavlas are you sure you are not walking/biking around a place with very strong magnets, or GPS jammers of some kind?

              @isazi Definitely not. It’s different places and always on a bike.
              The Suunto App ignores these artifacts, which is why I only noticed it now.
              But in the Sport Tracker web, this crazy thing pops up.

                @pavlas it may also just a bug of the sports-tracker then. Are your statistics in SA affected? Do you see the distance and speed being crazy? If not, it is a sports-tracker issue and you should contact them.

                  @isazi It’s not Sport Tracker’s problem. Check the link directly.
                  You’ll see the jumps after 3:16:07. But they’re not plotted.

                      @pavlas I zoom and the artifacts are not there. Do you export to Strava or anywhere else also? Are they there?

                          @isazi Yeah, the artifacts aren’t here, but the jumps are. Try moving your mouse slowly over the timeline at this point.

                              @pavlas we may need @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos to check your activity and see what is going on.

                                    I was checking on other activities now. So the problem is with all activities šŸ˜• But not always.
                                    And the problem started exactly on March 1st.

                                        as said, maybe just a Sport-tracker ā€œbugā€ (which is not exptected to be SA web site).
                                        if you look at your activity in SA, no errors.
