Let them keep making segments. Instead of taking one KOM on the segment you are going for, you will take 4!!

I went for one last year to find out that the one long one I KOM'd on had three shorter ones in it and I got them as well along with another two later in the ride. Biggest haul I have had in a single ride.

there can be some advantages to living rurally as well as some disadvantages. my last physio commute, a distance of 37km has in total 7 segments (1 of which is a private segment and another is a hidden segment). http://app.strava.com/activities/39969302
If I want to find more segments, I have to cross to the otherside of the M6... such as this ride http://app.strava.com/activities/40177083 last Friday. This 82km route has 20 segments on it. Only 6 of which are on my side of the M6 and that includes a private segment of my own.
I have to confess to having made a segment within a segment simply because the original segment ended about 25m from my front door therfore hitting my exclusion/privacy zone so a shorter segment within the original segment allowed me to 'participate' within Strava otherwise it can be quite lonely when trying to find segments around here

I must admit when I made a segment on a road near me that didn't have a segment I started it about tenth of a mile later than I would have normally to get it to start outside my privacy zone.I have to confess to having made a segment within a segment simply because the original segment ended about 25m from my front door therfore hitting my exclusion/privacy zone so a shorter segment within the original segment allowed me to 'participate' within Strava otherwise it can be quite lonely when trying to find segments around here
The silliest segment I have on my commute is a ⅟10th of a mile segment called “Cycle Track to Clifford Road Climb” a 31’ climb, [URL='http://app.strava.com/activities/40614735#672717002. Which']http://app.strava.com/activities/40614735#672717002[/URL]. Which shows up on strava as a decent then a climb. I don’t understand why it’s there as you have to do a 180 degree turn at the start to get onto to the climb, and then a 90degree turn to get off the climb. The climb is only about 50 feet in length, the rest of the segment is cycling up a road, and the segment doesn’t even go to the end of the road it just stops.

Hmm, this is the segment, and this is the ride. I used the data from my Holux which is usually incredibly accurate.

Going on the club ride tonight. Will probably end up getting a few new segments.
