Not going to fix just yet as it'll make it easier to test state changes once the Journey recorder is implemented (won't have to spoof anything to make it look like we're moving)

Have cast fix.speed to an int before applying the conversion from m/s to mph to lower the likelihood of a precision error. Appears to be working. Commit b1f8978 refers
