Reply to "Measuring wheel inaccuracy"

I concur with Mark's observation about the inaccuracies of measuring wheels. I learned that many years ago when I thought that I could easily make course adjustments with a measuring wheel rather than using a steel tape which is more cumbersome. In a similar manner to Mark, I checked my wheel for accuracy on a calibration course. I found it to be about 5 feet off over the 1000' cal course. There's also obviously inaccuracies in walking with a wheel. Wheels are great though for rough measurements and easier than going through bike calibration.
