Yep, wind would be an obvious source for error, and it was fairly windy this morning. I had not thought of the elevation/grade inaccuracies, but there would definitely be some. Strava, and the Elemnt Bolt have always had significant differences in elevation gain since I've been using them. Sometimes by as much as 10% for a given ride.
