Anyone know why my rides are not auto uploading from my Iphone to the web?

Thinking of that ride have you seen this new segment.

Looks like similar speeds to this segment that I nabbed 3rd place on this weekend... This can definitely be bettered - just have to watch out for the bends and the slow cars but it's definitely a fasty!

Are you getting any error messages?

You are not far behind the famous skier Alberto Tomba who seems to be living on the Wirral.

If he set that time on skis then that is impressive... Especially considering we don't get much snow around there in June!

I'm on Android, so I don't know how helpful this comment will be, but I noticed that I have to leave Strava open for quite a while after a ride in order to let it upload to the server; it seems to take an age. Try opening Strava then leaving it open over night (with your iphone on charge of course) and see if that helps.

Indeed game on, I see someone wlse has tied us for 2nd place as well so time for CC to reclaim the KOM

Gah, first of all the railway crossing closed then I got stuck behind two cars, both going 25mph! http://app.strava.com/activities/24466903

Well I cannot get my I phone to sync the ride at the moment but I popped out lunctime and gave it a good go. I assume this must be the same problem Robson 3022 is having Endomondo failed on me as well on the way in this morning grrrr

Get a Garmin 200. I used to use my HTC and it drove me crazy when it droped or mis plotted rides.

I didn't even bother with Strava on my phone for this ride, I just used the data from my GPS. I tracked Endomondo on my phone and had to dump it, 43mph top speed my arse!

Yep looks like Garmin may be the answer, I managed to catch a sneaky draft on a Carlsberg lorry as well grrrr

MIssed out on a KoM by a full 8 seconds today, having missed the same one by 2 seconds yesterday. The segment has a level crossing just before the end, so it was a little gutting to see it closed and have to wait at it for at least 20 seconds and then missing out by such a small margin / was on for a good KoM pace

Missed a KOM this morning thanks to a slow van driver. I got 2nd despite the delay. Annoying.

Yah I phone synced back home on wifi and Gipping Sprint is back in cc hands as well as a bonus KOM I didn't know was there Result.
