Ok, this is good! The outdoor vs indoor makes total sense. 75rpm seems much more within the range of my type/ability.
similarly, cadence is normally a little different on a trainer,then outdoors.
This! Training outside = lowest cadence.
Indoor/race is what should be compared.
Saying you got 75 on the FTP test makes it less of a change to 85+.
I dont know how to change it or how it should be done, but it is funny how different we all are and what feels natural when it comes to cadence.

outdoor endurance rides also frequently have coasting, stop signs, hills etc, where you are not riding at normal cadence...so the average observed outdoors frequently doesn't=the average you would race it. similarly, cadence is normally a little different on a trainer,then outdoors.
