Silly STRAVA Racing

[400bhp]

Anyone tried x-features yet? Pretty handy they are.

Just on the settings page now, reading it all...

Ok, so just 2 features released for now but it's a start. Good that they are thinking carefully about how Strava works and how it can be improved!

Do they include a LRoM ?
I'd qualify for a few...

Went out for an hour this morning, it was a bit windy, but managed 4 PR's on my new bike.

Which one were you heading for ? . I see that at least the puncture was close to your work given you 0.8 mile strava ride ...

I had another go at Papermill lane today but on my way out to start it I found out there are temporary traffic lights!

But I did get KOM on a segment that I have been battling with ever since I first signed up for Strava, it's called the 'Sproughton Brisk ( Reverse )' and I'm not normally so imodest, but I'm quite proud to say I fricken trounced it. I'm now quite pleased that I got a puncture on the way to work this morning, because it meant I had to take the singlespeed home and swap it for the geared bike!

Does the 'check for new segments' functionality on veloviewer work for anyone else?
The bar gets to about 98% and it just stops, been like this for over 2 hours. Admittedly I have logged 999 rides on strava.

Shouldn't take that long.

Works fine for me.

Your machine must be FUBAR'd, Gaz. Format the harddrive immediately!

I sometimes have to do it twice as I get the problem you have. Then again you and me have a lot of rides to process.

err-why are my rides and distance at zero in my sig?

 

[Andrew_P]

Strava has been playing me up for a while with uploading 9 times out of 10 it goes through even though the "processing" lines never progress to complete, the odd occasion it wipes the GPS data on the ride. So I always leave it till last now. Garmin + Endomondo works perfectly for me so I guess it is not my 705 playing up.

I think the fella changed the way the sigs work, I fixed my zero rides by going and getting new code from the site.

Lol tried it on two machines. One which has a 100mb internet connection.

<geek>I very much doubt the crunching is done using your computer's processing power, you're executing a command that the server then carries out. At a guess I'd say the updates are happening but the animation that shows it completing isn't working on your browser.</geek>
