Silly STRAVA Racing

[SatNavSaysStraightOn]

found a nice tailwind on the way to my mum's today and added to the QOM's... 2 new ones and 1 faster one that I already held. 9 cups on the way out and 4 on the way home (out of 9 & 4 segments respectively) can't wait to fit the new wheels...

Right

Over the course of the last week, some SCUM have decided to steal some of MY KOM's

That thingymibob below my posts said "52" on Monday. Now it's 47

They are mine - give them back.

I can't believe some people - the cheek of it.

Whilst i was unwell some sneaky bugger nabbed 5 (yes 5!!!) of my KOM's. I was unable to respond until recently when i reclaimed them all and took one of his KOM's, just as a pitbull might give you a warning bite before mauling your face off!!

3 KOM's on todays ride. There was also a funny looking yellow thing in the sky that made me feel warm all over.

Got 5 top 10's today by being assisted by a few club members. Got a few PR's too. A good 40 mile ride.

Went on a 52 mile loop ride this morning. Around the Tay for all the Scots on here. Beautiful ride!!

For the stat geeks:

For the Strava geeks (me included)

7 KOM's, 3 x 2nd places, 2 x 3rd places and a 4th place.

Lost a KOM, gained 2

Evening aficionados; is there an etiquette to inserting new segments on your usual home routes or do you just go for it?

I am obviously living in a Strava desert here and would like to pop one on the end of my home run to pizazz the last km or so up a bit?

Amateur!!

Wait till you nail it on a bit of road usually with a tail wind then you make a segment!

 

[Radchenister]

Nah, I have the sofa crash on my side, don't need a tail wind ...

 

[mattobrien]

One podium, one top ten and another 3 PRs. Plus 60 miles covered at an average if 19.1mph, the first 40 were at 20mph, but I ran out of steam somewhat for the last 20.

Still trying to figure out where Scapin put the motor on the new bike, as it is certainly a lot quicker than the old one...

I dont seem to be getting notifications when losing KOM (have checked my settings and everything is ok). Anyone else have the problem?

 

[Sittingduck]

No, but then again I'm not exactly the keeper of many

One thing I have noticed in the past few days is that the elevation correct feature seems to not be available and the pop up box that shows 'others' who were on the ride, is not showing the names or avatars. Maybe Strava is having a bit of a freak out atm?

Yeh sometimes get them sometimes don't.

Yeh sometimes get them sometimes don't.

ditto, it might be down to the new KOM's privacy settings
