Silly STRAVA Racing

Ahh, well I don't use Android - only the website. The comparison graph thing has always been there though. I was hoping for some funky new features when i read about a software update

He still appears as KOM in the segment 400bhp and I noticed him on. Resting hr, zero cadence and a speed of 35 mph. I am 3rd on the segment at just over 30 mph and his stats on it are impossible achieve on a bike. Why isn't it being removed when flagged?

If thats the Belmont rd climb hen he doesn't seem to even be on the leaderboard?

@pedrosanchezo - no, this one.

Got a really good second place this morning. I was very happy with my time and not bothered about missing the KOM, but when I checked the leader's ride it had an average speed of 48mph, maximum of 62mph and took in 20 miles along the M62. Flagged it, and the KOM is mine.

Now I feel like one of those riders who inherits the yellow jersey after the original winner fails a drugs test!

I only had a few minutes for lunch but managed to grab a quick KOM, feel a bit bad as I took it from someone for whom this was his only KOM. Still, I'd love it if he took it back!

Might have been a car, if he's above the speed limit we could pass it to a friendly copper

Wow dude is a speed demon must be in a car surely

Nah, it's on the train, unless he drove his car down the train tracks.

Lost my only KOM http://app.strava.com/segments/1687321 :-(

 

[400bhp]

Now that one wasn't done in the car. He took the train!

And done on a Garmin 705 too-no excuse

At least you were beaten by Luke Skywalker.

I just looked at the data for this afternoon's KOM and realised that my phone GPS went utterly bananas on a part of my ride, so I deleted the ride and uploaded the data from my Holux and now my ride is showing as my second fastest time on that segment, second fastest to the KOM I deleted earlier! Hopefully it will work itself out, otherwise I'm worried that because when you click on my KOM it shows as the ride not existing people might think I'm playing silly buggers and report me

My god I can't wait for a better phone!

@pedrosanchezo - no, this one.

Hmmm yeh looks sus. The speed itself is not unlikely it's the fact that the cadence and HR are obviously not reading. Also the elevation on his section is different to everyone elses. WTF?? Weird.
If you have not already click on the date next to his KOM and on that page flag the ride and give reasons for. I get the feeling you have already done it this way though.

I realise I'm talking to myself a bit here, but I've lost the KOM so I wonder if I've been reported. Of course the smart thing to do would be to go and ride it at KOM speed again

Could try deleting the ride and re uploading it?

Yep I reported you, well dodgy

Well that is the Skratch labs challenge complete.

Was a good motivation to get some base miles in
