Hey, just got back from an outdoor ride. Strava shows about 2200ft of elevation gain yet traineroad shows 3000ft any ideas as to why the numbers differ so much?
I’ve noticed the same thing - TR seems to double the total climbing I do. Not that I’m complaining - bigger numbers!

Hey there!
This topic was brought up in another thread a little while ago and this response should things up
Hey Paul!
Thanks for reaching out to us about this!
Sadly, there is no way to correct the elevation data within TrainerRoad at this time . Strava and Garmin Connect both use a mapping correction software that we simply do not have at this time. Incorporating mapping software is something we may do in the future, but due to its high cost of implementation, it is a fairly low priority. We feel that tracking TSS and other power-based metrics provides much more actionable insights.

Cheers!
