Trainerroad allows u to compare the current ride to a given season. When u set a power pr(s) in that ride u get a link to open the season in which the pr(s) were made for quick analysis. This is very helpful however I always want to compare that ride AGAINST the season. Since the ride is included in that season trainerroad compares the ride against itself showing a 0-watt difference where the pr(s) were achieved. I would rather compare that ride against my previous pr(s) for that season to easily see how much I beat them by. To do this I have to set a custom range of season start to previous day. It would be nice if this were the default or if there was a quick “season-to-date” shortcut. Thanks for taking the time to read and for a great product. I’m definitely a faster cyclist now thx to trainerroad! ---

I believe you can do this by going to the PR section and selecting a customer date from one of the comparison lists. Screen shot below. You would just select the dates of your season prior to the current date. ![Capture](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/trainerroad/original/2X/5/575bc35d46cb16ca545ee721ef42245f989346a0.jpeg) ---

Thx @emannix14. The work around u described i described also in my OP. I’m suggesting this be made into a feature bc the work around is a bit clumsy and this capability has obvious value IMO. Thx again ---

Great minds think alike… Started this topic yesterday. > [@Personal Records Chart Improvement](https://www.trainerroad.com/forumt/personal-records-chart-improvement/4277): > > I like the personal records chart but it would be greatly improved if, when you’re comparing a ride against the current season, it would exclude the ride. That would make it much easier to see where improvements have occurred. Shading in the area below the line where records have been achieved would make it very easy to read at a glance. Obviously you can do this with custom date ranges - excluding the day of the workout, but it would be much more elegant as I’ve outlined above. Mike Mike ---

You’re right. I mis-read your OP. Sorry about that! ---

Oh awesome @themagicspanner thx for sharing. I searched the forum for “feature request” before posting but didn’t see yours. I liked your post. Hopefully we can get enough interest in this feature to have it implemented. ---
